two angles are supplementary. one of the angles has a measure that is 52 degrees larger than the other angle. what is the measures of these two angles?

Question

hartnn · Answer

let the smaller angle be x
so larger angle is x+52
and as you must know,supplementary angles add up to 180
so x+x+52=180
can u find x from here??

poohbear · Answer

But, 128 and 52 doesn't have a difference of 52.

hartnn · Answer

x is not 128
x+x+52=180
so 2x+52=180
2x=128
x=64
and other angle is x+52=64+52=116

Ohhhhh. I get it, thanks.
