Question 410242: Two angles are supplementary. The measure of one angle is 10 degrees more than three times the other. Find the measure of each angle. Answer by armstrkl(28) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Let the measure of one angle be x. Then the other angle is 3x+10. The sum of these two angles is equal to 180 degrees, therefore:
The first angle is 42.5 degrees, the second angle is 3(42.5)+10 degrees, or 137.5
