Answer

$m\angle A=120$ $m\angle B=60$

Work Step by Step

It is given that $m\angle A=2m\angle B$. $m\angle A+m\angle B=180\longrightarrow$ definition of supplementary $2m\angle B+m\angle B=180\longrightarrow$ substitution $3m\angle B=180\longrightarrow$ combine like terms $m\angle B=60\longrightarrow$ division property of equality Substitute to find $m\angle A$. $m\angle A=2m\angle B=2(60)=120$
