Problema Solution

the sum of 2 angles id 204, one angle is 21 less then twice the other. find the angles

Answer provided by our tutors

let 'x' and 'y' represent the angles


the sum of 2 angles id 204:


x + y = 204


one angle is 21 less then twice the other:


x = 2y - 21


by solving the system of equations we find:


x + y = 204


x = 2y - 21


we find:


x = 129 degrees


y = 75 degrees
