Question 211754: The measure of an angle is 9 more than twice the other angle. If the two angles are supplementary angles, find the measure of each angle. Answer by stanbon(75887) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! The measure of an angle is 9 more than twice the other angle. If the two angles are supplementary angles, find the measure of each angle.
----------------------------------
Let one of the angles be "x".
---
The 2nd angle would be "2x+9"
---
Equation:
x + (2x+9) = 180
3x = 171
x = 57
