Answer: The larger angle (Angle 2) is 120 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's call Angle 1 x and call Angle 2 y.

Two angles being supplementary means that they add to 180.

This means x+y=180

Angle 2 is twice the measurement of angle 1.

This means 2x=y and that we can sub 2x in for y

x+2x=180

3x=180

Now solve for x

[tex]3x=180\\\frac{3x}{3} =\frac{180}{3} \\x=60[/tex]

We know the value of x, so now let's sub in to find the value of y

[tex]2x=y\\2(60)=y\\120=y[/tex]
