Question 1002672: One of two supplementary angles is five times the other. Find the angles. (Recall that supplementary angles are angles whose sum is 180 degrees.)
Which equation can be used to solve for the smallest angle?
5x = 180
6x = 180
2x + 5 = 180
Answer by fractalier(6550) (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Call the smaller one, x.
The larger is then 5x.
Add them to get 180 degrees.
Thus
6x = 180
is what you use.
