If M<1 is four times its supplement, find M<1 and its supplement.
\n" ); document.write( "----------------
\n" ); document.write( "Let the angle (M<1) be \"x\".
\n" ); document.write( "Its supplement is 180-x
\n" ); document.write( "-----------------------
\n" ); document.write( "EQUATION:
\n" ); document.write( "x = 4(180-x)
\n" ); document.write( "x = 720-4x
\n" ); document.write( "5x = 720
\n" ); document.write( "x = 144 (the angle you call M<1)
\n" ); document.write( "180-144=36 ( the supplement of M<1)
\n" ); document.write( "============================
