Answer:
let the first angle be x and the second angle be x+50
According to the question,
X+x+50=180
X+x+50=1802x+50=180
2x=130
2x=130X=65°
2x=130X=65°the first angle =x =65°
2x=130X=65°the first angle =x =65°the second angle =x+50=65+50=115
ALITER METHOD:
Here's the answer
Let the two angles be x and y.
We know that
Supplementary angles measure 180°
Therefore,
x + y = 180° ... eq. (1)
Now,
According to the given condition,
X - y = 50° ... eq. (2)
Now,
Adding eq (1) and eq (2),
We get,
x + y = 180°
+ x - y = 50
----------------
2x = 230
x = 115°
Now,
As x - y = 50°
Putting value of x in eq. (2),
115 - y = 50°
y = 115°-50°
y = 65°
Thus,
We got values of x and y -
X = 115°
y = 65°
