Supplementary angles equal 10 degrees.

Let angle 6 = X

Angle 5 is 24 more than half of angle 6, which can be written as 1/2X +24

So now we have X  + 1/2x +24 = 180

Combine the like terms ( X  +1/2X = 1.5X)

1.5x + 24 = 180

Subtract 24 from each side:

1.5x = 156

Divide both sides by 1.5:

x = 156 / 1.5

X = 104

Angle 6 = 104 degrees.

Angle 5 = 180 - 104 = 76 degrees
