Problem
Two adjacent angles form a straight angle. One of them measures (3x+25)∘ and the other measures (5x−7)∘.
(i) Set up an equation in x using the given information.
(ii) Solve the equation to find the value of x and hence determine the measure of each angle.
(iii) Verify that the two angles obtained in part (ii) are supplementary.
