Find the measure of an angle which is 32° less than its supplement. Let the measure of the required angle be x°. Then, measure of its supplement = (180 — x)°. (180 - x)-x=32 > 2x=148 > x=74, Hence, the measure of the required angle is 74°. Two supplementary angles are in the ratio 3 : 2. Find the angles. Let the measures of the given angles be (3x)° and (2x)° respectively. Since the given angles are supplementary, we have 3x+2x = 180 > 5x=180 > x=36. the measures of the given angles are (336)° and (2 X 36)’, i.e, 108° and 72° respectively. The supplement of an angle is one third of the given angle. Find the measures of the given angle and its supplement. Let the measure of the given angle be x°. Then, the measure of its supplement = (180 - x)’. 180-x=4x > 3(180-2)=x = 540-3x=x => 4x=540 = x= 135. Hence, the measure of the given angle is 135° and the measure of its supplement is (180 — 135)? = 45°. Find the measure of an angle, if seven times its complement is 10° less than three times its supplement. Let the measure of the required angle be ee Then, its complement = (90-x)° and its supplement = (180 - x)°. 7(90 - x) = 3(180— x) - 10 => 630-7x =540-3x-10 => 4x=100 > x=25.

SOME ANGLE RELATIONS ADJACENT ANGLES Two angles are called adjacent angles, if (i) they have the same vertex, (ii) they have a common arm and (iii) their non-common arms are on either side of the common arm. Inthe given figure, ZAOC and ZBOC are adjacent angles having the same vertex O, a common arm OC € and their non-common arms OA and OB on either side of OC. ° A LINEARPAIROF ANGLES Two adjacent angles are said to form a linear pair of angles, if their non-common arms are two opposite rays.
