Problema Solution
Two angles form a linear pair. The measure of one angle is z and the measure of the other angle is 2.4 times z plus 10∘. Find the measure of each angle.
Answer provided by our tutors
Linear pair is a pair of adjacent, supplementary angles. Thus, we have:
z + (2.4z + 10) = 180

........
z = 50
2.4*50 + 10 = 130
The measures of the angles are 50 and 130.
