Find the measure of an angle which is double of its supplement
Answers
Answer:120°
step by step explanation:
supplementary angle means 180°
let x be one angle and 2x be another angle
x+2x=180
3x=180
x=180
3
x=60
double of 60 is 120
60+120= 180

In the above Question , we have to find the measure of an angle which is double of its supplement .
Solution -
Let us assume that the required measure of the required Angle is x° .
We have the following given condition -
The required Angle is double of its supplement .
Now, know that supplementary angles add upto 180°
So ,
If the given angle is x ,
The supplementary angle is 180° - x
So ,
x = 2 ( 180° - x )
=> x = 360° - 2x.
=> 3x = 360°
=> x = 120°
Thus the required Angle is 180° .
This is the required answer .
Additional Information -
Complementary angles add upto 180°
Sum of all the exterior angles of any polygon is always 360°
