Two angles, $\angle 1$ and $\angle 2$, are supplementary. The measure of $\angle 1$ is $(4x - 23)^\circ$ and the measure of $\angle 2$ is $(2x + 11)^\circ$. We need to find the measure of $\angle 1$.

1. Problem Description

Two angles, 1\angle 1 and 2\angle 2, are supplementary. The measure of 1\angle 1 is (4x23)(4x - 23)^\circ and the measure of 2\angle 2 is (2x+11)(2x + 11)^\circ. We need to find the measure of 1\angle 1.

2. Solution Steps

Since 1\angle 1 and 2\angle 2 are supplementary angles, their measures add up to 180180^\circ. Therefore, we can write the equation:
m1+m2=180m\angle 1 + m\angle 2 = 180^\circ
Substitute the given expressions for the measures of the angles:
(4x23)+(2x+11)=180(4x - 23) + (2x + 11) = 180
Combine like terms:
6x12=1806x - 12 = 180
Add 12 to both sides of the equation:
6x=1926x = 192
Divide both sides by 6:
x=1926=32x = \frac{192}{6} = 32
Now that we have found the value of xx, we can find the measure of 1\angle 1:
m1=4x23m\angle 1 = 4x - 23
Substitute x=32x = 32:
m1=4(32)23m\angle 1 = 4(32) - 23
m1=12823m\angle 1 = 128 - 23
m1=105m\angle 1 = 105
Therefore, the measure of 1\angle 1 is 105105^\circ.

3. Final Answer

105105^\circ
