Angle A and B are supplementary angles. The measure of angle B is twice the measure of angle A minus 24. Find the measure of the angle A and B.

Sagot :

Answer:

A = 58

B = 112

Step-by-step explanation:

A + B = 180                           Supplementary angles

B = 2A - 24                           Given

Substitute for B in the first equation

A + 2A - 24  = 180

3A - 24 = 180                         Add 24 to both sides

3A = 180 + 24                        Combine the right

3A = 204                               Divide both sides by 3

A = 204/3

A = 68

B = 2A - 24

B = 2*68 - 24

B = 136 - 24

B = 112
