Question

One of two supplementary angles is five times the other. Find the angles. (Recall that supplementary angles are angles whose sum is 180 degrees.)

Which equation can be used to solve for the smallest angle?



5x = 180

6x = 180

2x + 5 = 180

Answer 1

use the given hint

Answer 2

What's the given hint?

Answer 3

let the smallest angle be \(x\)

Answer 4

given hint :
`(Recall that supplementary angles are angles whose sum is 180 degrees.)`

Answer 5

Okay

Answer 6

`One of two supplementary angles is five times the other.`

so the largest angle will be \(5x\)

Answer 7

\[\large x+5x=180\]
