Question

Mabel measured an angle on her math worksheet with her protractor. The angle measured 83. If she were to draw an angle which was supplementary to the angle on her worksheet, what should that new angle measure?

Answer 1

Mabel would have to draw a new angle that measured 97°.

Explanation:

Supplementary angles always add up to 180°.

So, she would have to draw an angle that was
`180`°
`- 83`°

`180-83=97`.

So Mabel would have to draw a new angle that measured 97°.
