2 angles are supplementary if their sum is 180 degres. The larger angle measures eight degree more than three times the measure of a smaller angle. If x represents the measure of the smaller angle and these two angles are supplementary, find the measure of each angle. I have the answer but do not know ho to get it 43 degrees & 137 degrees Thank you\r
