Question

If two angles are supplementary and one of the angles measures 38°, what is the measure of the larger angle?

Answer 1

Answer:

The larger angle is $142$ degree

Explanation:

The sum of supplementary angle is $180$ degree.

Given

Angle $A = 38$ degree

Let the other angle be "B"

Angle $A +$Angle $B$$= 180$degree

$38 + B = 180\\B = 180 - 38\\B = 142$ degree

The larger angle is $142$ degree.

Answer 2

Two supplementary angles add up to 180°. So the measure of the angle supplementary to 38° is 142°.
