Question

Find the measure of an angle which is 34° less than its supplement

Answer 1

Answer:

Let the measure of the angle be x

o

and

the measure of its supplement be (x+34)

o

.

Then,

⟹x = 180

o

−(x+34)

o

⟹x+x = 146

o

⟹2x = 146

o

⟹x = 146

o

/2

⟹x = 73

o

Hence, the supplement of the given angle measures 73

o

.
