#144.4# degrees.

Explanation:

Supplementary angles combine to make #180# degrees. If one angle measures #35.6# degrees, the other must combine to make #180# degrees. We can set up an equation to solve for this:

#35.6 + x = 180#

Subtract #35.6# from both sides:

#x=color(red)(144.4)#

#144.4°#

Explanation:

Supplementary angles add up to #180°#.

Let the supplementary angle of #theta=35.6°# be #x#.

Therefore,
#x+theta=180°#
#x+35.6°=180°#
#x=180°-35.6°=144.4°#
