Question 281695: Two angles are supplementary. If four times the smaller angle is decreased by twice the larger angle, the result is 54 degrees. Find the smaller angle. Answer by Greenfinch(383) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Small angle is X, large angle is 180 - X
4X - 2(180 - X) = 54
6X - 360 = 54
6X = 414
X= 69, other is 111
