Step-by-step explanation:
So, it is given that a pair of angles is supplementary,
Firstly, let the ratio be 5x : 1x,
Now, since the sum of both angles will be 180 degrees
therefore, 5x + 1x = 180
6x = 180,
therefore, x = 180/6
x = 30
Now angle 1 = 5x= 5×30 = 150 degrees
And angle 2 = 1×30 = 30 degrees

Answer:
The smaller angle is 30 degrees and the second angle being twice as large is 60 degrees.
Explanation:
Let's call the smaller angle a.
Because the ratio of the angles is 5:1 the second, or larger angle is:5a.
And we know the sum of these two angles is 180 so we can write:
a+5a=180
6a=180
a=30
