Question

Angle A and Angle B are supplementary. Angle A has a measure of 3x - 6 and Angle B has a measure of 54. What is the value of x?

Answer 1

Answer:

44 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Since they are supplementary, they add up to 180. This means that

3x - 6 + 54 = 180

Solving,

3x + 48 = 180

subtract 48 from both sides

3x = 132

divide both sides by 3

x = 44 degrees
