Question 89
An angle is smaller than its supplementary angle by 50°. What is the measure of the angle?
Solution
Let the angle = $$\theta$$
Its supplementary angle = $$(\theta + 50$$°$$)$$
Sum of an angle and its supplementary angle = 180°
=> $$\theta + (\theta + 50$$°$$) = 180$$°$$$$
=> $$2 \theta = 180$$°$$ - 50$$°$$ = 130$$°$$$$
=> $$\theta = \frac{130}{2} = 65$$°$$$$
