Two angles are supplementary. One is 15 degrees more than four times the other. Find the measures of the angles.
\n" ); document.write( "What is the smaller angle?
\n" ); document.write( "What is the other angle?
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "Let x = smaller angle
\n" ); document.write( "then
\n" ); document.write( "4x+15 = other angle
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "x + 4x+15 = 180 (definition of supplementary)
\n" ); document.write( "5x+15 = 180
\n" ); document.write( "5x = 165
\n" ); document.write( "x = 33 degrees (smaller angle)
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "Other angle:
\n" ); document.write( "4x+15 = 4(33)+15 = 132+15 = 147 degrees
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
