You can put this solution on YOUR website! Let the unknown angle =
The supplement of is:
------------
given: degrees
----------------------
check:
Its supplement is:
OK
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Call the unknown angle, x.
Its supplement must be 180-x.
Then we can write
x = (180-x) + 53
Now simplify...we get
x = 180 - x + 53
x = 233 - x
2x = 233
x = 116.5 degrees
