Question 485128: the measure of the supplement of an angle is 60 less than three times the measure of the complement of the angle. find the measure of the angle. Answer by cleomenius(959) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! (180 - x) + 60 = 3(90 -x)
240 -x = 270 - 3x
2x = 30
x = 15
complement = 75
supplement = 165
75 * 3 = 225
225 - 165 = 60
