Answer:
Let x = the angle
180 - x = its supplement since supplementary angles add up to 180 degrees.
180 - x = 1/2 x
2(180 - x) = 2(1/2) x
360 - 2x = x
360 = 3x
120 = x
The angle is 120 degrees, and its supplement is 60 degrees.

The angle is 120°, and its supplement is 60° .
Given:
An angle is half of it's supplement.
To Find:
The angle.
Solution:
Let "X" be angle.
180 - X = it's supplement since supplementary angles add up to the 180 degrees.
=) 180 - x = 1/2 X
=) 2(180 - x) = X
=) 360 - 2x = X
=) 360 = 3X
=) 120 = X
Hence, the angle is 120° & its supplement is 60° .
