    Let the smallest angle = x

    Then the larger one = 71x

    Supplementary angles are always equal to 180o

    x + 71x = 180o Add the left side

    72x = 180 Divide by 72

    x = 180/72

    x = 2.5

    The smallest angle = 2.5 degrees

    The largest angle = 2.5 * 71

    The largest angle = 177.5 degrees.
