The supplement of an angle is 122 degrees less than 3 times the supplement of the complement of the angle. Find the measure of the angle.
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "let A = the angle
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Try to write an equation for exactly what it says, then solve for A
\n" ); document.write( "180 - A = 3(180 - (90-A)) - 122
\n" ); document.write( "180 - A = 3(180 - 90 + A) - 122
\n" ); document.write( "180 - A = 3(90 + A) - 122
\n" ); document.write( "180 - A = 270 + 3A - 122
\n" ); document.write( "180 - A = 148 + 3A
\n" ); document.write( "180 - 148 = 3A + A
\n" ); document.write( "32 = 4A
\n" ); document.write( "A = 32/4
\n" ); document.write( "A = 8 degrees
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "See of that works out
\n" ); document.write( "180 - 8 = 172 is the supplement
\n" ); document.write( "90 - 8 = 82 is the complement
\n" ); document.write( "Write the statement with this information
\n" ); document.write( "\"The supplement of an angle is 122 degrees less than 3 times the supplement of the complement of the angle.\"
\n" ); document.write( "172 = 3(180 - 82) - 122
\n" ); document.write( "172 = 3(98) - 122
\n" ); document.write( "172 = 294 - 122
\n" ); document.write( "172 = 172, Equality reigns with this solution, we're so blessed!! \n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
