Algebra.Com's Answer #765008 by Theo(13342)![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! x equals the angle. \n" ); document.write( "180 - x equals the supplement. \n" ); document.write( "x = (180 - x) + 25 \n" ); document.write( "simplify to get x = 205 - x \n" ); document.write( "add x to both sides of the equation to get 2x = 205 \n" ); document.write( "solve for x to get x = 102.5 \n" ); document.write( "the supplement is 180 - 102.5 = 77.5 \n" ); document.write( "their sum is 102.5 + 77.5 = 180 \n" ); document.write( "their difference is 102.5 - 77.5 = 25 \n" ); document.write( "solution is confirmed to be good. \n" ); document.write( "solution is that the larger angle is equal to 102.5 degrees.\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " |
