: The measure of the supplement of an angle is 10 degrees more than four times the measure of the angle. Find the measures of both angles. Draw and label a picture representing this situation.
:
Let x = "the angle"
then
(180-x) = the supplement of the angle
:
It says,": The measure of the supplement of an angle is 10 degrees more than four times the measure of the angle.", write an equation for this:
180 - x = 4x + 10
:
180 - 10 = 4x + x
:
5x = 170
x =
x = 34 degrees
and
180 - 34 = 146 degrees is the supplement
:
:
draw and label a picture representing this situation.
You will have to do this.
