Question

The measure of one of the angles in a linear pair is 24 less than the measure of the other angle. Find the measure of each angle.

Answer 1

Angle one = 78°

Angle two = 102°

Explanation:

180° - 24° = 156°

156° / 2 = 78°

78°+24° = 102°

The second angle can also be found by subtracting 78° from 180°

180° - 78° = 102°
