Answer 1

Supplementary angles are two angles whose measures add up to 180 degrees. Given:

• \( m∠ABC = 15° \)
• \( m∠CBD = x° \)

Since these angles are supplementary, we can write the equation:

\[ m∠ABC + m∠CBD = 180° \]

Substituting the known value:

\[ 15° + x° = 180° \]

To find \( x \), we subtract 15° from both sides:

\[ x° = 180° - 15° \] \[ x° = 165° \]

Thus, the value of \( m∠CBD \) is \( 165° \).
