Question

Find the angle which is twice its supplement.


Open in App
Solution

Compute the required angle:

Two angles are called supplementary angles if their sum is equal to 180.

Suppose, x be the angle which is twice its supplement.

Therefore, another supplement angle is x2. Then,

x+x2=180

2x+x2=180°

3x2=180°3x=360°

x=3603x=120°

Therefore, the angle which is twice its supplement is 120.
