1. Find the measure of an angle if its measure is equal to that of its supplement
x - angle y - supplement
x+y=180
x=y
y+y=180
2y=180
y=90
x=90
2. Find the measure of an angle if its measure is 24 degrees less than twice that of its complement
x- angle y - complement
x=2y-24
x+y=90
2y-24+y=90
3y=114
y=38
x+38=90
x=52
