Question

If the supplement of angle x is five times the complement of angle x, how many degrees are in the measure of angle x

Answers

  1. Step-by-step explanation:
    complement means together they have 90°.
    supplement means together they have 180°.
    180 – x = 5(90 – x) = 450 – 5x
    4x = 270
    x = 270/4 = 67.5°
