Question

Two angles form a linear pair. the measure of one angle is 4 times greater than the measure of the other angle. find the measure of each angle

Answer 1

the sum of the linear pair angles equals 180°

∠1: 4x

∠2: x

4x + x = 180

5x = 180

x = 36

∠1: 4x = 4(36) = 144

Answer: 36° and 144°
