Question 1106261
pls. help me to answer: the supplement of the angle is 8 more than twice its complement. What is the angle?
—————————————————————————————————————
Let A=the angle
Supplement is  180-A
Complement is 90-A

 180-A = 8+2(90-A)     LHS from "the supplement is …" ;   RHS from "8 more than twice its complement"



This can be solved easily to get {{{ A = 8 }}} degrees
===
Check:  180-8 = 172
         8+2(90-A) = 8 + 2(82) = 8+164 = 172   (ok)
