Two angles are supplementary. One angle measures 26degrees more than the other one. Find the measure of the two angles.
\n" ); document.write( "Supplementary angles add up to 180 degrees
\n" ); document.write( "If the other angle is: x
\n" ); document.write( "The one angle is x+26
\n" ); document.write( "Problem to solve:
\n" ); document.write( "x+(x+26)=180
\n" ); document.write( "x+x+26=180
\n" ); document.write( "2x+26=180
\n" ); document.write( "2x+26-26=180-26
\n" ); document.write( "2x=154
\n" ); document.write( "2x/2=154/2
\n" ); document.write( "x=77
\n" ); document.write( "The other angle is: x=77 degrees
\n" ); document.write( "The one angle is: x+26=77+26=103 degrees
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Sanity Check, do the two angles add to be 180 degrees?
\n" ); document.write( "77+103=180 yes.
