Two angles are supplementary. Which of the following equations can be used to find the value of the missing angle, x, if the other angle is 98°?

Respuesta :

Two angles are said to be supplementary if their sum is 180 degrees. So, if x and y are supplementary angles, the formula is

[tex] x + y = 180 [/tex]

We know that one of the angles (say x) is 98. So, the equation updates to

[tex] 98 + y = 180 [/tex]

If we want to solve for the other angle, we can simply subtract 98 from both sides to get

[tex] y = 180-98 = 82 [/tex]
