We can use a system of equations in order to solve for both of the numbers. Let's start off by assigning variables to each number. The bigger number can be 'x', and the smaller number can be 'y'.
We can make two equations from the given:
x = 18 + y
("One number is 18 more than another number")
x + y = 36
("The sum of the numbers is 36")
If you look at the first equation, the variable 'x' already has a value (18 + y). We can input its value into the second equation in order to solve for y:
x + y = 36
(18 + y) + y = 36
18 + 2y = 36
2y = 18
y = 9
Input the value of 'y' into the first equation:
x = 18 + y
x = 18 + 9
x = 27
<u>One number is 27 and the other number number is 9.</u>

Add the two angles you already know (for example, 50 and 45), then, with the sum of the two angles (95), subtract it from 180 (180-95) and there's your answer. How do I find the third angle of a triangle if the two known angles are 35 and 40?
The measure of any exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of the measures of its two interior opposite angles. The sum of the three angles of a triangle is 180°. ... The sum of the lengths of any two sides of a triangle is always greater than the length of the third side.
