Question

two angles are supplementary of the sum is 180. the larger angle measures four degrees more than sevem times the measure of a smaller angle. of x represents the measure of the smaller angel and these two angles are supplementary find the measure of each angle.​

Answer 1

22 and 158

Explanation:

Supplementary angles add to 180. This is means there is a small and large angle. Adding together, they make 180.

• "the larger angle measures four degrees more than seven times the measure of a smaller angle" is represented as 7x+4.
• "x represents the measure of the smaller angle" is represented as x.

x + 7x+4 =180

8x+4=180

8x=176

x= 22

This is the measure of the smaller angle. The larger angle is 7(22)+4 = 158
