Let the angle = x
\n" ); document.write( "Its supplement = 180 – x
\n" ); document.write( "Its complement = 90 – x
\n" ); document.write( "Supplement measures 37 degrees more than twice its complement means\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Supplement = 2 x complement + 37
\n" ); document.write( "(180 – x) = 2(90-x) + 37
\n" ); document.write( "180 – x = 180 – 2x + 37; - x + 2x = 37
\n" ); document.write( "Therefore x = 37.
\n" ); document.write( "So the answer is the angle = 37 degrees\r
