Question

An angle measures 8° less than the measure of its supplementary angle. What is the measure of each angle?​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the larger angle be x.

Smaller angle = x - 8

As both angles are supplementary,

x + (x - 8) = 180°

2x - 8 = 180°

2x = 188°

x = 94°

Therefore, larger angle = 94°

Smaller angle = 94° - 8° = 86°
