Study Tips
Tip #1
When we add two angles and get exactly 180°, we can say that these angles are supplementary angles. See an example below:

In this lesson, we will learn about supp. angles.
00:00:09.060
Let's take a look at these two angles.
00:00:13.120
Notice that, when we add these two angles, we get 180 degrees.
00:00:20.120
When this happens, we can say that these two angles are supp. angles.
00:00:26.240
Now, when we move this arm, note that these two angles must add up to 180 degrees, to remain as supp. angles.
00:00:42.200
Adding 65 degrees with 115 degrees, gives 180 degrees.
00:00:56.240
Adding 46 degrees with 134 degrees, gives 180 degrees.
00:01:08.210
Adding 120 degrees with 60 degrees, gives 180 degrees.
00:01:17.030
Now, let's see some examples. Are these supp. angles?
00:01:25.060
To find out, we just need to add 50 degrees with 130 degrees. This gives 180 degrees.
00:01:35.090
Hence, these are supp. angles.
00:01:41.100
Next example, these two angles are supp. angles. Find x.
00:01:49.050
Now, when we add up these 2 angles, we must get 180 degrees.
00:01:56.180
Hence, we can find 'x', by subtracting 180 degrees, with 75 degrees.
00:02:04.120
Therefore, we get x equals to, 105 degrees.
00:02:11.000
That is all for this lesson.
