Question

If the measure of an angle is `37 1/2°`, what is the measure of its supplement?

Answer 1

The supplementary angle is `142 {1}/{2}°`.

Explanation:

Two angles are supplements of each other if they add up to `180°`. Here one angle is given as `37{1}/{2}°`, so the other must be

`180°-37 {1}/{2}°=142 {1}/{2}°`.
