Question

if the measurement of the angle P is three less than twice the measure of angle Q and angle P and angle Q are supplementary angles. what is each angle measure

Answer 1

Explanation:

Let angle Q = x°

Angle P = (2x - 3)°

And angle P and Q are supplementary angle which implies there sum is 180°

x + 2x - 3 = 180

3x = 180 + 3

3x = 183

x = 183/3

x = 61°

Angle Q = 61°

Angle P = 2x - 3

Angle P = 2(61) - 3

Angle P = 122 - 3

Angle P = 119°
