Recall that two angles are supplementary if the sum of their measures is 180 degrees.
Let the given angle be \( \theta = 95^\circ \). We want to find its supplement, which we'll call \( \phi \).
Set up the equation for supplementary angles: \( \theta + \phi = 180^\circ \).
Substitute the known value: \( 95^\circ + \phi = 180^\circ \).
Solve for \( \phi \) by subtracting 95 degrees from both sides: \( \phi = 180^\circ - 95^\circ \).
