Question

A angle measures 83 degrees what is its supplement?

Answer 1

<2 = 97

Explanation:

Definition: Supplementary angles are 2 or more angles with the same vertex that add up to 180o

Solution

<1 = 83

<2 = ?

Total = 180o

<1 + <2 = 180 Substitute for angle 1

83 + <2 = 180 Subtract 83 from both sides.

83 - 83 + <2 = 180 - 83 Do the subtraction

<2 = 97 degrees
