Question

Two angles are making a linear pair if one of them is one third of the other.find the angles

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

let one angle be "x"

let the other be "1/3 x"

then,

x + 1/3x = 180 ( as it is given they make a linear pair)

=> 3x/3 + 3/x = 180

=> 4x/3 =180

=> 4x = 180*3

=> x = 540/4

       =135

therefore,

1st angle= 135 (substitute "x"

2nd angle= 135/3

                 =45

checking:

135+45=180

thats it

hope it helps! :)
