Answer:
138 degrees
Explanation:
Two angles are said to be Supplementary if they add up to 180 degrees.
Given that Angles A and B are supplementary and:
[tex]\begin{gathered} m\angle A=(2x-24)^0 \\ m\angle B=(5x-27)^0 \end{gathered}[/tex]Therefore:
[tex]\begin{gathered} m\angle A+m\angle B=180^0 \\ 2x-24+5x-27=180 \\ 7x=180+27+24 \\ 7x=231 \\ x=\frac{231}{7} \\ x=33^0 \end{gathered}[/tex]Therefore, the measure of angle B will be:
[tex]\begin{gathered} m\angle B=(5x-27)^0 \\ =5(33)-27 \\ =165^0-27^0 \\ =138^0 \end{gathered}[/tex]The measure of angle B is 138 degrees.
