QuestionIf A\angle A is supplementary to B\angle B and B=115\angle B=115^{\circ}, find A\angle A.

Studdy Solution

STEP 1

Assumptions1. A\angle A is supplementary to B\angle B . B=115\angle B=115^{\circ}
3. Two angles are supplementary if the sum of their measures is 180180^{\circ}

STEP 2

We can express the relationship between A\angle A and B\angle B using the definition of supplementary angles.A+B=180\angle A + \angle B =180^{\circ}

STEP 3

Now, plug in the given value for B\angle B to solve for A\angle A.
A+115=180\angle A +115^{\circ} =180^{\circ}

STEP 4

Rearrange the equation to isolate A\angle A.
A=180115\angle A =180^{\circ} -115^{\circ}

STEP 5

Calculate the measure of A\angle A.
A=180115=65\angle A =180^{\circ} -115^{\circ} =65^{\circ}So, A=65\angle A =65^{\circ}.
