Question

An angle measures 50° less than the measure of its supplementary angle. What is the measure of each angle?

Answer 1

Answer:

115, 65

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be an angle measurement

x-50 is the supplement

They add to 180

x + x-50 = 180

2x-50 = 180

Add 50 to each side

2x-50 + 50 =180+50

2x = 230

Divide by 2

2x/2 =230/2

x = 115

The measure are 115 and 115-50=65
