Hi,
The measure of one angle is 30° more than twice the other
Let x and (2x +30°) represent the measures of these angles
Question states*** "Angles are supplementary
x + (2x +30°) = 180°
Solving for x
3x = 150°
x = 50°, It's supplementary angle is 130° (2*50°+30
CHECKING our Answer***
50° + 130° = 180°
