Question

x and y are supplementary angles. If x = 5y, find the value of x and y.

_____________________________

Answer

When the sum of two angles is 180°, it is known to be a supplementary angle.

So here using the given value of 'x' we will find the values of both 'x' and 'y'.

x = 5y

y = y

Let's solve your equation step-by-step.

5y + y = 180

Step 1: Simplify the equation

⇒ 5y + y = 180

⇒ 6y = 180

Step 2: Divide 6 from both sides of the equation.

⇒ 6y ÷ 6 = 180 ÷ 6

⇒ y = 30

∴ x = 5y = 5(30) = 150°

∴ y = 30°
