    Supplementary angles equal 10 degrees.

    Let angle 6 = X

    Angle 5 is 24 more than half of angle 6, which can be written as 1/2X + 24

    So now we have X + 1/2x + 24 = 180

    Combine the like terms (X + 1/2X = 1.5X)

    1.5x + 24 = 180

    Subtract 24 from each side:

    1.5x = 156

    Divide both sides by 1.5:

    x = 156 / 1.5

    X = 104

    Angle 6 = 104 degrees.

    Angle 5 = 180 - 104 = 76 degrees
