Two angles form a linear pair. The measure of one angle is three times the measure of the other angle. Find the measure of each angle.

Answer:

45 and 135 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

A linear pair of angles sum to 180°

let one angle be x , then the other is 3x ( 3 times the other ), thus

x + 3x = 180

4x = 180 ( divide both sides by 4 )

x = 45

Thus the 2 angles are

x = 45° and 3x = 3 × 45° = 135°
