Question

Two angles are supplementary and have a ratio of 1:4. what is the size of the smaller angle

Answer 1

Supplementary angles add up to 180 degrees
ratio of 1:4.....added = 5

1/5(180) = 180/5 = 36 <=== smaller angle
4/5(180) = 720/5 = 144 .... larger angle

Answer 2

Supplementary angles add up to 180 degrees
ratio of 1:4.....added = 5

1/5(180) = 180/5 = 36 <=== smaller angle
4/5(180) = 720/5 = 144 .... larger angle
