If Angle A is congruent to Angle B and the supplement of Angle B has measure 22 degrees, then the measure of Angle A is what? Please Help

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Supplement angles add up to 180 so if the supplement angle for B is 22 what is B?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Congruent angles have the same angle degrees....Hint angle A = Angle B

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So A and B are 22?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no, read my first post -

OpenStudy (anonymous):

If A and B have to be the same and have to add up to 180, then I'm thinking 90

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Is that it?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

No - your question states "the supplement of Angle B has measure 22 degrees" so based on definition of supplement angles : B equals 158 degrees. Based on definition of congruent if B is 158 so is A

OpenStudy (anonymous):

But that doesn't add up to 180

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes A and B are the same - but they do not add up to 180. Supplement angles add of up to 180

Okay, Thanks :)
