MCQ
One angle is equal to three times its supplement. The measure of the angle is:
  • A
    $130^\circ$
  • $135^\circ$
  • C
    $90^\circ$
  • D
    $120^\circ$

Answer

Correct option: B.
$135^\circ$
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 $
$\Rightarrow\ \theta=135^\circ$
