Answer:
- x = 35°
- 77
Step-by-step explanation:
Supplementary angles add up to 180°
- 3x - 2° + 2x + 7° = 180°
- 5x + 5° = 180°
- 5x = 175°
- x = 35°
Angles
- 3*35° - 2° = 105° - 2° = 103°
and
- 180° - 103° = 77°
Answer:
x = 35
77 degrees
Step-by-step explanation:
Supplementary angles mean that two angles add up to measure 180 degrees.
Solve for x.
(3x - 2) + (2x + 7) = 180
~Combine like terms
5x + 5 = 180
~Subtract 5 to both sides
5x = 175
~Divide 5 to both sides
x = 35
Angle 1:
3x - 2
3(35) - 2
105 - 2
103 degrees
Angle 2:
2x + 7
2(35) + 7
70 + 7
77 degrees
103 > 77
The smaller angle is 77.
Best of Luck!
