The supplement of an angle is six times as large as the complement of the angle. What is the measure of the angle to the nearest whole degree?

Solution:

Complementary angles add up to 90° and supplementary angles add up to 180°

Let "a" be the required angle

Supplement of an angle = 180 - a

Complement of angle = 90 - a

The supplement of an angle is six times as large as the complement of the angle.

Therefore,

180 - a = 6(90 - a)

Simplify the above

180 - a = 540 - 6a

6a - a = 540 - 180

Combine the like terms

5a = 360

Divide both sides by 5

a = 72

Thus the measure of the angle to the nearest whole degree is 72 degrees

answer: it's d

step-by-step explanation:

because 1/3 is a fraction. we can tell because there is a divisor symbol between the 1 and the 3. if we were to add 2 fractions together, we would add the numerators, which is the number on top, but not the denominators, which is the number on the bottom

1/3+1/3=2/3

hope this !
