2 line segments intersect to form an angle that has a measure pf 50.7 degrees. What is the measure in degrees of an angle that is supplementary to this angle.
I don't understand what this question is asking me. Can someone explain it to me?
Supplementary angles add up to 180º.
So do i just subtract 180-50.7?
Yes and the correct answer is 129.3
Yes.
Yes
Certainly! I can help you understand the question.
The question is asking about two line segments that intersect, forming an angle with a measure of 50.7 degrees. To visualize this, imagine two lines crossing each other, like the letter "X". At the point where the lines intersect, an angle is formed, and this angle measures 50.7 degrees.
Now, the question asks for the measure of an angle that is supplementary to this given angle. In geometry, two angles are considered supplementary if the sum of their measures equals 180 degrees. So, we need to find the measure of the angle that, when added to the given angle of 50.7 degrees, will result in a sum of 180 degrees.
I hope this helps clarify the question for you. Let me know if you have any further questions!
