Problema Solution
Two angles are supplementary if their sum is 180 degrees. The larger angle measures four degrees more than ten times the measure of a smaller angle. If x represents the measure of the smaller angle and these two angles are supplementary, find the measure of each angle.
Answer provided by our tutors
Let smaller angle be x degrees
Therefore, larger angle=10x+4 degrees
x+10x+4=180
11x+4=180
11x=176
x=16 degrees
Smaller angle=16 degrees
Larger angle=160+4 164 degrees
