Among two supplementry angles, the measure of the large angle 36 degree more than the smaller angle.find their measures.
.
Let x = measure of smaller angle
then
x+36 = measure of larger angle
.
x + x+36 = 180
2x+36 = 180
2x = 144
x = 72 degrees (smaller angle)
.
Larger angle:
x+36 = 72+36 = 108 degrees (larger angle)
