Answer:

The measures of the angles are 50° and 130°

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x ----> the measure of one angle

y ----> the measure of the other angle

we know that

If two angles form a linear pair , then their sum is equal to 180 degrees

[tex]x+y=180[/tex] -----> equation A

[tex]x=2.6y[/tex] ----> equation B

substitute equation B in equation A

[tex]2.6y+y=180[/tex]

solve for y

[tex]3.6y=180[/tex]

[tex]y=50^o[/tex]

Find the value of x

[tex]x=2.6(50)=130^o[/tex]

The measures of the angles are 50° and 130°
