One angle measures two times the measure of a smaller angle. If x represents the smaller angle and these two angles are supplementary, find the measure of each angle. \n" ); document.write( "--- \n" ); document.write( "smaller = x \n" ); document.write( "supplement = 180-x \n" ); document.write( "---- \n" ); document.write( "Equation: \n" ); document.write( "180-x = 2x \n" ); document.write( "180 = 3x \n" ); document.write( "x = 60 (smaller) \n" ); document.write( "180-x = 120 (larger) \n" ); document.write( "====================== \n" ); document.write( "Cheers, \n" ); document.write( "Stan H. \n" ); document.write( "============= \n" ); document.write( " |
