Question

The measure of an angle is five times the measure of its complementary angle. What is the measure of each angle?

Answer 1

Answer:

150 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Let the supplement = x  
2. So the angle you want is 5x  
3. Then [x + 5x] = 180 because they are supplementary.  
4. Solving. 6x = 180. Then x = 30.  
5. So the angle is 5x = 5×30 = 150 degrees
