Let x be the measure of riginal angle, then the measure of the supplement is 3x + 20. We can set up an equation using the fact that the sum of an angle and its supplement is 180. So x + (3x + 20) = 180

OpenStudy (anonymous):

If two angles are suplimentary, they add up to 180 degrees. So, your answer will be D.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

are you sure @TrojanPoem

OpenStudy (anonymous):

No, @TrojanPoem Suppliment means the angles equal 180, not 90.

OpenStudy (blake57roger):

yea

OpenStudy (anonymous):

he said 70 @YesThisIsDog

OpenStudy (trojanpoem):

Sorry saw it Cos 20

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes, So 70+20 equals 90. not 180.

OpenStudy (trojanpoem):

160
