The angles are {47,Hoping this helps!......
1)If a supplement of an angle has a measure 78 less than the measure of the angle,what are the measures of the angles?

2)The sum of the measures of two complementary angles exceeds the difference of their measures by 86.Find the measure of each angle.Explain how you found the measurements.

3) You are given that
-
**note:
Supplementary angles have a sum of 180 degrees, while complements have a sum of 90 degrees.
If you call an angle x, then its supplement is 180-x and its complement is 90-x.

1)If a supplement of an angle has a measure 78 less than the measure of the angle,what are the measures of the angles?

Let x = the angle.
Then 180-x is the supplement
The supp is 78 less than the angle:
180-x = x-78.... Solve
258= 2x
129= x
180-129= 51
The angles are {51,129}

2)The sum of the measures of two complementary angles exceeds the difference of their measures by 86.Find the measure of each angle.Explain how you found the measurements.

Let x = one angle
90-x = the complement

Their sum is 86 more than their difference:
X+(90-x)= x-(90-x)+ 86

(solve)
90= 2x -4
94= 2x
47=x
43= 90-x
The angles are {47,43}

3) You are given that
X= m 90-x = m
180-(90-x)= the supplement of m (simplify)
90+x= m
Hoping this helps!
