Supplementary Angles. Two Angles are Supplementary when they add up to 180 degrees

angle=x

supplementary angle------------y

y=180-x

x+y=180

angle is twenty-nine times the measure of a supplementary angle

x=29*y

29*y+y=180

30*y=180

y=6 degrees

x=29*6=174 degrees

the measure of each angle is 6 degrees and 174 degrees
