An angle is 32° less than its supplement. The measure of the angle is

(a) 37°
(b) 74°
(c) 148°
(d) none of these

Answer 1

$$\begin{gathered} \left(b\right)74° \\ \mathrm{Suppose}\mathrm{the}\mathrm{angle}\mathrm{is}x. \\ x=180-x-32 \\ \Rightarrow x+x=148 \\ \Rightarrow 2x=148 \\ \Rightarrow x=\frac{148}{2} \\ \Rightarrow x=74° \end{gathered}$$
