💡 Analysis & Explanation
Angle Properties ▼
Supplementary angles are pairs of angles that always add up to exactly 180 degrees.
Variable Assignment ▼
Let the smaller angle be represented by 'x'. The larger angle is given as 'x + 28'.
Equation Formulation ▼
Setting up the geometric relationship: x + (x + 28) = 180.
Solving the Equation ▼
2x + 28 = 180 implies 2x = 152. Dividing by 2 yields x = 76 degrees.
Conclusion ▼
The measurement of the smaller angle is 76 degrees.
