Answer:</h2>
<h3>
<em>x=45degrees</em></h3>
<h2>
Step-by-step explanation:</h2>
Let the angle to be solved be x
Let the supplement/compliment by y
x+y=90 Complimentary angles add up to 90 degrees.
x+3y=180 Supplementary angles add up to 180 degrees, the other angle is thrice the other compliment.
Evaluating this as a system:
x+y=90 Isolate x:
x=90−y Input into the other equation:
(90−y)+3y=180 Combine like terms, isolate y and its coefficients:
2y=90 Isolate y
y=45 Input into the first equation:
x+45=90 Isolate x:
x=45degrees
