The measure of the supplement of an angle is 46 more than 3 times the complement of the angle. Find the angle.

A) angle =22
B) angle =68
C) angle =112
D) angle =44

45 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the angle to be solved be

x

Let the supplement/compliment by

y

x+

y=90

Complimentary angles add up to 90 degrees.

x+3

y=180

Supplementary angles add up to 180 degrees, the other angle is thrice the other compliment.

Evaluating this as a system:x+y=90 Isolate x:x=90−y Input into the other equation:(90−y)+3y=180Combine like terms, isolate y and its coefficients:2y=90 Isolate yy=45 Input into the first equation:x+45=90 Isolate x:x=45 degrees

1/4 and 8/3 because:

the reciprocal if 4 is 1/4 because 4 is used as 4/1 and the opposite of that is 1/4. the opposite of 3/8 is 8/3 so that is the answer.
