let the angle be x
then its supplement is 180 - x
and its compliment is 90-x
angle's supplement is 50 more than 5 times its compliment
180-x = 5(90-x) + 50
180-x = 450 - 5x + 50
4x = 320
x = 80
the angle described is 80°
check:
the supplement is 100
the compliment is 10
is 100 fifty more than 5 times 10 ?
YES!
The measure of the angle’s supplement is 50 degree more than five times that of its complement. Find the measure of the angle described.
