Supplementary angles sum to 180°. So add the expressions for the two angles, set the sum equal to 180, then solve for x. Plug that value of x back into the expressions for each angle to find the measure of each angle.

asked 03/05/21Find the measure of each angle. <EFG and <LMN are supplementary angles, m<EFG=(3x+17)degrees, m<LMN=(1/2x -5)degrees
m<EFG=
m<LMN=
