Question 843133: Two angles are supplementary (if you do not know this definition �Google� it). If the larger angle is 3 degrees more than twice the smaller angle then how big is each angle. Write an expression for each angle. Write the equation for this situation. Solve the equation. Find the size of each angle.

Suppose the smaller angle is x (deg) and the larger is 180-x. Then 180-x = 3 + 2x --> 177 = 3x --> x = 59 deg, so the angles are 59 deg and 121 deg.
