Two angles are supplementary. If the measure of one

angle is 33° and the other is 3xº, what is the value of x? a.) write an equation to represent this situation. b.) solve the question find X. c.) how would the equation be different if these angles are complementary

Supplementary means the sum of two angles are 180*

so A) 180=33 + 3x

Solve the equation 180 = 33 + 3x

180 = 33 + 3x
subtract 33 from both sides
147 = 3x
divide both sides by 3
49=x

B) x=49

C) complementary is when two angles have the sum of 90* so the equation would be

90 = 33 + 3x
