Question 340199: the measures of two supplementary angles are in the ratio of 7:5. Which value is the measure of the smallest angle? Answer by fractalier(6550) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! We call the ratio 7x to 5x...
then 7x + 5x = 180
12x = 180
x = 15
and the angles are
105 and 75 degrees, 75 degrees being the answer...
