Question

the larger of two supplementary angles exceeds the smaller by 18 degrees find them

Answer 1

let the smaller angle be x
the larger angle = x + 18
according to the problem
x+18+x = 180
2x =180-18
2x = 162
x = 162/2 = 81
the angles are 81 and ( x + 18)= 81 + 18 = 99(ans.)

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

HLW MATE HERE IS YOUR CORRECT ANSWER.......

Let the larger angle be 'x' and the smaller one be 'y'

ATQ,

x =y +18 ---------------------(1)

We know that, sum of supplementary angles =180°

x+y=180°---------------------(2)

SUBSTITUTE x=y+18 in eq (2)

y+18+y=180°

2y=180-18

2y=162

y=162/2

✓y=81

x=81+18

=99

THEREFORE,

THE ANGLES ARE 81 AND 99
