ASAP PLEASE!!!

Find the supplementary angle of an angle measuring 183. If the supplementary angle does not exist, explain why. (1 point)
The supplementary angle is 177,
The given angle does not have a supplementary angle because supplementary angles add to the sum of 360'. The supplementary angle would need
to be 177 , and the supplement for it cannot be greater than 90° based on the definition of supplementary angles.
The supplementary angle is 107
The given angle does not have a supplementary angle because supplementary angles add to the sum of 180°. The supplementary angle would then
need to be -3, and negative angles are not allowed based on the definition of supplementary angles.

Answer:

"The given angle does not have a supplementary angle because supplementary angles add to the sum of 180°. The supplementary angle would then need to be -3, and negative angles are not allowed based on the definition of supplementary angles."

Explanation:

A supplementary angle completes an angle less than 180 degrees by filling in what's left. Ex. 170 and 10 are supplementary angles because they add up to a straight line, 180.

Since 183 is greater than 180, no angle (a negative angle isn't an angle) can complete it.
