Question 768843
Two supplementary angles are in the ratio 3:7. Find the angles ?


Let the two angles be 3x and 7x.

Supplementary angles add up to 180 degrees.

Therefore:

3x + 7x = 180

10x = 180

x = 18

3x = 3 * 18 = 54

7x = 7 * 18 = 126



Answer:

The two angles are 54 degrees and 126 degrees.
