The supplement of an angle is one-third ...

The supplement of an angle is one-third of itself. Determine the angle and its supplement.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Let the qangle is `theta`. Then, its supplement will be `180-theta`.
It is given that,
`180-theta = 1/3 theta`
`=>540-3theta = theta`
`=>4theta = 540`
`=>theta = 135`
So, angle is `135^@` and its supplement is `45^@.`
