Question

Angles 1 and 2 are supplementary. If angle 1 measures (2x +2)°, and angle 2 measures (x - 5)° what is the measure of each angle?

Answer 1

angle 1 is = 124 angle 2 is = 56

Explanation:

supplementary angles always add up to 180 so you can set up the equation (2x+2)+(x-5)=180 to find x. After solving you get x = 61 and then once you have x you plug it into the 2 equations you got for the angles to solve for 1 and 2.
