Question

The sum of an angle's complementary and supplementary is 124. Find the measure of the angle.

Answer 1

I can't make up the equation. Please help

Answer 2

i think 180- 124 = 56

Answer 3

why would that be the equation?

Answer 4

u want the measure of remaining angle right? then ans is 56

Answer 5

lets call the angle a

complementary of a = 90-a
supplementary of a = 180-a

their sum is 124:

90-a + 180-a = 124

solve for a
