13. Supplementary angles are two angles that add up to 180 degrees.

3x + x = 180

Combine like terms:
4x = 180

4x divided by 4 = x

180 divided by 4 = 45

x = 45

Equation:
3(45) + 45 = 180

135 + 45 = 180 (TRUE STATEMENT)

Angle A = 135 degrees
Angle B = 45 degrees

This is correct as 135 + 45 adds up to 180 (making it a supplementary angle) AND 135 is 3 times bigger than 45 so it fits the answer’s standard.

Ima do number 14 in the comments as I don’t want to take too long to show number 13.
