Question 718949: If the measure of angle 1= 4x+3 and the measure of angle 2=3x+8, find x so that angle 1 is supplementary to angle 2 Answer by jsmallt9(3758) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Two angles are supplementary if their measures add up to 180. So:
(4x+3) + (3x+8) = 180
Now we solve for x:
7x + 11 = 180
7x = 169
x = 169/11
