You can put this solution on YOUR website! An Angle is 12 degrees less than one half of its supplement.
:
Your equation: x + 12 = 1/2(180-x) is correct to find the angle x
x + 12 = 90 - .5x
x + .5x = 90 - 12
1.5x = 78
x =
x = 52 degrees is the angle
:
Find the supplement? 180 - 52 = 128 degrees
:
:
We can confirm this
52 + 12 = .5(128)
64 = 64
