Two supplementary angles are in ratio5:7?

2 Answers

#75^\circ, 105^\circ#

Explanation:

Let the supplementary angle be #5x# & #7x# then their sum will be equal to #180^\circ#

#\therefore 5x+7x=180#

#12x=180#

#x=\frac{180}{12}=15#

hence, the angles are #5\times 15=75^\circ# & #7\times15=105^\circ#

#75^@" and "105^@#

Explanation:

#"supplementary angles sum to "180^@#

#"sum the parts of the ratio "5+7=12" parts"#

#(180^@)/12=15^@larrcolor(blue)" 1 part"#

#5" parts "=5xx15^@=75^@#

#7" parts "=7xx15^@=105^@#

#"the supplementary angles are "75^@" and "105^@#
