    66 and 114 degrees

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Supplementary angles add to 180 degrees.

    An angle measures 48 more than its supplementary angle. If the supplementary angle is x, then the other angle must be x+48

    x+x+48=180

    Subtract 48 from both sides

    x+x+48-48=180-48

    x+x=132

    Combine like terms

    2x=132

    Divide both sides by 2

    2x/2=132/2

    x=66

    So, one of the angles is 66 degrees. The other is x+48

    x+48

    66+48=114

    One of the angles is 66 degrees, the other is 114 degrees
