Answer:

70° and 110°

Explanation:

Supplementary angles sum to 180°

sum the parts of the ratio, 7 + 11 = 18 parts

Divide 180° by 18 to find the value of one part of the ratio.

180° ÷ 18 = 10° ← value of 1 part, thus

7 parts = 7 × 10° = 70°

11 parts = 11 × 10° = 110°

The 2 angles are 70° and 110°
