Algebra.Com's Answer #117279 by nerdybill(7384)![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! The problem expects that you know: \n" ); document.write( "Two angles are complementary if the sum of their angles equal 90. \n" ); document.write( "Two angles are supplementary if the sum of their angles equal 180. \n" ); document.write( ". \n" ); document.write( "\"find the measure of an angle its measure is 5 times as large as its supplement\" \n" ); document.write( "Let x = measure of the angle \n" ); document.write( "then 180-x = supplement of the angle \n" ); document.write( "and from: \"the measure of an angle its measure is 5 times as large as its supplement\" we get: \n" ); document.write( "x = 5(180-x) \n" ); document.write( "x = 900-5x \n" ); document.write( "6x = 900 \n" ); document.write( "x = 900/6 \n" ); document.write( "x = 150 degrees\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"find the measure of an angle if its measure is 10 more than four times its complement\" \n" ); document.write( "Let x = measure of an angle \n" ); document.write( "then 90-x = complement of the angle \n" ); document.write( "and from: \"the measure of an angle if its measure is 10 more than four times its complement\" we get \n" ); document.write( "x = 4(90-x) + 10 \n" ); document.write( "x = 360 - 4x + 10 \n" ); document.write( "5x = 370 \n" ); document.write( "x = 74 degrees \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " |
