    1. By definition, the sum of the Suplementary angles is 180° and the sum of the Complementary angles is 90°. Keeping this on mind, you have:

    90-x (The complement of the angle)

    180-x (The sumplement of the angle)

    "x" is the angle that you want to calculate.

    2. Then, you have:

    3 (90-x) + 30=180-x

    (270-3x) + 30=180-x

    300-3x=180-x

    300-180=-x+3x

    120=2x

    120/2=x

    x=60°

    What is the measure of the angle?

    The answer is: The measure of the angle is 60°.
