Question :-
The supplementary of the angle is 10° more than three times its complement . find the angle.
Answer :-
The angle is 50°
Given :-
The supplementary of the angle is 10° more than three times its complement.
To find :-
The angle
Solution :-
Let the angle be x°
- Two angles are called supplementary angles if the sum of the angles is equal to 180°
- The supplementary angle of x° = (180 - x)°
- Two angles are called complementary angles if the sum of the angles is equal to 90°
- The complementary angle of x° = (90 - x)°
Given,
The supplementary of the angle is 10° more than three times its complement.
(180 - x)° = 3(90 - x)° + 10°
180° - x° = 270° - 3x° + 10°
-x° = 270° - 180° -3x° + 10°
3x° - x° = 90° + 10°
2x° = 100°
x° = 100°/2
x° = 50°
>>> The angle is 50°
