Answer:

55 125

Explanation:

Let the smaller angle = x

Let the larger angle = x + 70

They are supplementary so the total of the two angles, by definition must be 180 degrees. Note that you should understand that any number of angles can but supplementary as long as they all add up to 180 degrees.

x + x + 70 = 180

2x + 70 = 180

2x + 70 - 70 = 180 - 70

2x = 110

2x/2 = 110/2

x = 55

the smaller angle = 55 degrees

The larger angle = 55 + 70 = 125
