Question

Find the measures of supplementary angles 1 and 2, if:
m∠1:m∠2=5:4

Answer 1

he's right

Explanation:

or she i dont discriminate

Answer 2

<1 = 100

<2 = 80

Explanation:

Angle 1 and angle 2 are supplementary

Supplementary angles add to 180 degrees

<1 + <2 = 180

The angles are in a ratio of 5 to 4

Multiply by x to get the measure of each angle

<1 = 5x <2 = 4x

5x+4x = 180

Combine like terms

9x = 180

Divide by 9

9x/9 =180/9

x =20

<1 = 5x = 5*20 = 100

<2 = 4x = 4*20 = 80
