two angles are supplementary. if one angle is 36 less than twice of the angle , find the two angles

Question

try your best in this situation

Answer 1

Let "one angle" have measurement x. Then the other is 180-x, because of the supplementary fact.

 

But also, said angle can be expressed as 2x - 36, according to the first clause in the second sentence (in spite of its grammatical awkwardness).

 

Solve 180 - x = 2x - 36.
