Question

Three times the measure of an angle is 25° less than twice its supplement, what are the measurement of the angle and its supplement

Answer 1

Answer: angle is 67 degrees. Supplement is 113 degrees.

Explanation:

Let the measure of the angle be x

The supplement of the angle is 180-x.

Putting the math in the sentence,

based on the question, we have 3x=2(180-x)-25

Solving, we get 3x=360-2x-25. So 5x=335.. so x= 67 degrees (normal angle)

So 180-x=113 degrees (supplement
