Question 707143: angles a and angle b are supplementary angles find the measure of each angle if angle a is 30 greater than angle b Answer by Stitch(470) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Two angles are supplements when they add up to 180
Equation 1:
Equation 2:
-----------------------------
Plug (B + 30) into equation 1 for A
Equation 1:
Combine like terms
Subtract 30 from both sides
Divide both sides by 2
Now plug 75 into equation 2 for B
