Question

an angle is 16° less than its supplement.find the measure of the angle​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Complementary angles sum to 90 degrees, so if one angle is x degrees its complement will be 90-x degrees. x = 37 degrees, the complement of 37 is 53, since 90–37 = 53, and 53 is 16 more than 37.

Answer 2

Answer:

For two angles to be supplementary

their sum should be equal to = 180 degrees

Given an angle is 16 less than its supplement

let first angle be = x

second angle = x - 16

now , X + X - 16 = 180

2x = 180 + 16

x = 196/2 = 98

One angle is 98 degree

and other angle is 98- 16 = 82 degree
