Question
One angle is equal to three times its supplement. The measure of the angle is:

Answer

  1. 135°
    Solution:
    Let the required angle be ${\theta}.$
    Then, measure of its supplement $180^\circ-\theta$
    According to question, we have
    $\theta=3(180-\theta)$
    $\Rightarrow\ \theta=540^\circ-3\theta$
    $\Rightarrow\ 4\theta=540^\circ $
    $\Rightarrow\ \theta=135^\circ$
