If an angle measures x degrees, how can you represent its supplement?

Question

If an angle measures x degrees, how can you represent its supplement?

Answer 1

Supplementary Angles are any two angles that, when you add them, they equal 180º.

Let "x" and "y" be angles, such that

x + y = 180º

Therefore, to find the supplement of "x", just solve for "y":

x + y = 180º

y = 180º - x (<==ANSWER!!)

In other words:

If the angle is x

the supplement is (180º - x)

Hope I helped!

Answer 2

Do you know what the supplement of an angle is?  Or ever think of looking it up?  No, I didn't think so.  

Two angles are supplementary if their measures add up to 180.  So the supplement of x is just 180 - x.

Answer 3

u know that the sum of supplementary angles is 180 degrees.

so if one angle is x then the other angle is 180-x.
