Hello!

The angles are supplementary meaning they add to 180°

a + 2a + 3 = 180

Combine like terms

3a + 3 =  180

Subtract 3 from both sides

3a = 177

Divide both sides by 3

a = 59

the answer is 59°

Hope this helps!
The two angles labeled are alternate corresponding.

These angle are supplementary.

use the following equation to solve for a.

2a + 3 + a = 180

Solve for a now.

3a + 3 = 180
3a = 177
a = 59

Hope this helps :)
