Question

An angle measures 124 more than the measure of its supplementary angle. What is the measure of each angle?

Answer 1

28° and 152°

Explanation:

Suplementary angles add to 180°

If one of angles is 124° more than the other then if we subtract 124° from the larger angle we get two equal angles which sum is also 124° less

180° - 124° = 56°

56° - sum of two equal angles

56° ÷ 2 = 28° - the measure of smaller angle

28° + 124° = 152° - the measure of larger angle
