If four times the supplement of an angle is added to eight times the angle's complement, the sum is equivalent to three straight angles. Find the measure of the angle that is supplementary to the complement.
\n" ); document.write( "-----
\n" ); document.write( "angle:: x
\n" ); document.write( "complement:: 90-x
\n" ); document.write( "supplement::1 180-x
\n" ); document.write( "------------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "Equation:
\n" ); document.write( "4(180-x) + 8(90-x) = 3*180
\n" ); document.write( "-------
\n" ); document.write( "720-4x + 720-8x = 620
\n" ); document.write( "1440-12x = 620
\n" ); document.write( "12x = 820
\n" ); document.write( "x = 68 1/3 degrees
\n" ); document.write( "-------
\n" ); document.write( "The complement is 21 2/3 degrees
\n" ); document.write( "----
\n" ); document.write( "The supplement of this complemet is 158 1/3 degrees
\n" ); document.write( "===========================
