Answer:

The angels are 60 degrees and 120 degrees

Explanation:

The sum of two supplementary angels equal 180 degrees.

So, lets look at the ratio: 6:3

We then add 6 and 3 together which gives us 9.

Then you put it in this equation:

9x = 180

x= 20

- You are adding the two numbers and dividing the sum by 180 because the answer will tell us how much 1 would equal.

- In this case, we multiply 20 by 6 = 120 degrees

- Then we multiply 20 by 3 = 60 degrees.

(We can check our answer by: 120 + 60 = 180 degrees) :)
