The measure of an angle is twice the measure of its supplementary angle

Question:

The measure of an angle is twice the measure of its supplementary angle. Find the measure of the angles?

Solution:

Let the angle in case be 'x'

The supplementary of a angle x is (180 - x)°

Applying given data:

x = 2 (180 - x)

x = 360 - 2x

3x = 360

x = 360/3

x = 120

Therefore the value of the angle in case is 120°
