Answered by RaunakRaj

Let one angle be x then other angle is (x-15)...
so,
x+x-15=95
=>2x=110
=>x=55
So,one angle is 55 and other is 40.

sumit43: how the other angles is 40° (prove that)

RaunakRaj: if one is 55 then other is x-15 and x is equal to 55. Hence other angle is 55-15=40..

RaunakRaj: writting like this is common practice in higher claases...

RaunakRaj: and ya u am in 11th so, i wrote like this as it is common..

sumit43: sorry

Hello friend

Sum of two adjacent angles is 95°

Let one of them be x°

According to the problem the other angle is x-15°

x+(x-15)=95

2x-15=95

2x=110

x=110/2=55

One angle is x=55°

Another angle is x-15=55-15=40°

Hope it helps!!

sumit43: correct
