The correct answers are:
68° and 112°.
Explanation:
Let x be the measure of the smaller angle.
The larger angle would then be x+44.
Since the angles are supplementary, their sum measures 180°. This gives us the equation:
x+(x+44) = 180
Combining like terms, we have
2x+44 = 180
Subtract 44 from each side:
2x+44-44 = 180-44
2x = 136
Divide each side by 2:
2x/2 = 136/2
x = 68
The smaller angle measures 68°.
The larger angle is 44° more:
68+44 = 112°
