Find the measure of the larger of two supplementary angles.
\n" ); document.write( "A + B = 180
\n" ); document.write( "The measure of the larger is four times the smaller.
\n" ); document.write( "A = 4B
\n" ); document.write( "Replace A with 4B in the 1st equation
\n" ); document.write( "4B + B = 180
\n" ); document.write( "5B = 180
\n" ); document.write( "B = 180/5
\n" ); document.write( "B = 36 degrees
\n" ); document.write( ":

\n" ); document.write( "A = 4(36)
\n" ); document.write( "A = 144 degrees
\n" ); document.write( "
