Let's call the angle x.

The complement of the angle is 90 - x.

The supplement of the angle is 180 - x.

According to the problem, the supplement is six times as large as the complement:

180 - x = 6(90 - x)

Simplifying this equation:

180 - x = 540 - 6x

5x = 360

x = 72

Therefore, the angle is 72 degrees, which is answer choice B.

To construct a triangle, the sum of the lengths of any two sides must be greater than the length of the third side.

Let's check each set of line segments:

A. 7 cm, 4 cm, and 1 cm.

7 + 4 = 11, which is greater than 1.

7 + 1 = 8, which is also greater than 4.

But 4 + 1 = 5, which is NOT greater than 7.

Therefore, this set of line segments cannot be used to construct a triangle.

B. 8 cm, 3 cm, and 6 cm.

8 + 3 = 11, which is greater than 6.

8 + 6 = 14, which is greater than 3.

6 + 3 = 9, which is also greater than 8.

Therefore, this set of line segments can be used to construct a triangle.

C. 6 cm, 3 cm, and 2 cm.

6 + 3 = 9, which is greater than 2.

6 + 2 = 8, which is greater than 3.

3 + 2 = 5, which is NOT greater than 6.

Therefore, this set of line segments cannot be used to construct a triangle.

D. 9 cm, 2 cm, and 6 cm.

9 + 2 = 11, which is greater than 6.

9 + 6 = 15, which is greater than 2.

6 + 2 = 8, which is NOT greater than 9.

Therefore, this set of line segments cannot be used to construct a triangle.

The only set of line segments that can be used to construct a triangle is B: 8 cm, 3 cm, and 6 cm.

To find the distance between -17 and 9 on a number line, we need to calculate the absolute value of the difference between the two numbers:

|(-17) - 9| = |-26| = 26

Therefore, the distance between -17 and 9 on a number line is 26 units.
