Two angles are supplementary if their sum is 180". The larger angle measures eight degrees more than three times the measure of a smaller angle. If x represents the measure of the smaller angle and these two angles are supplementary, find
the measure of each angle
Please help give the smaller and bigger angle measure

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

2 angles are supplementary if their sum is 180 degrees. The larger angle measures eight degrees more than three times the measure of a smaller angle. If x represents the measure of the smaller angle and these two angles are supplementary, find the measure of each angle. I have the answer but do not know how to get it 43 degrees & 137 degrees

Let the smaller angle be x

The larger angle will be 3x+8

X+3x+8=180

4x=180-8=172

X=172/4

X=43

3*43+8= 137
