Two angles are supplementary. The larger angle is 33 degrees more than 6 times the smaller angle. Find the measure of each angle

noname [10]

Sum of two angles that are supplementary = 180°

Let the smaller angle be = x

$Let \: the \: smaller \: angle \: be \: = \: x$

$then \: the \: larger \: angle \: = 6x + 33$

<h3>Their sum :</h3>

$x + 6x + 33 = 180$

$7x + 33 = 180$

$7x = 180 - 33$

$7x = 147$

$x = \frac{147}{7}$

$x = 21$

Using this let us find the measures of the smaller angle and bigger angle .

$smaller \: angle \: = x = 21°$

$larger \: angle \: = 6x + 33 = 6 \times 21 + 33 = 126 + 33 = 159°$

∴ The measure of the two angles are = 21° and 159° .

Answer:

8/17 and 9/17

Step-by-step explanation:

8:9

both add up to 17

so it can be 8/17 or 9 but it cannot be simplified unless if you want them both as a mixed number which is

8/17 as a mixed number is 2 1/17

9/17 as a mixed number is 1 8/17

Find the unknown length x in the right triangle, to the nearest tenth.<br> 16<br> 21

PIT_PIT [208]

Answer:

16 rounded to the nearest 10 is 20

21 rounded to the nearest 10 is 20

so I don't really know but I guess you should put the x as 20 for sure UwU
