Question 325751: Two angles are supplementary. One angle measures 66 degrees more than the other angle. Find the measure of the two angles. Answer by stanbon(75887) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Two angles are supplementary.
x+y = 180
---------------------------
One angle measures 66 degrees more than the other angle. Find the measure of the two angles.
x = y+66
------------------
Substitute for "x" and solve for "y":
y+66 + y = 180
2y = 246
y = 123
