x+(3x-2)=90
\n" ); document.write( "x+3x-2=90
\n" ); document.write( "4x=90+2
\n" ); document.write( "4x=92
\n" ); document.write( "x=92/4
\n" ); document.write( "x=23 for the smaller angle.
\n" ); document.write( "3*23-2=69-2=67 for the other angle.
\n" ); document.write( "Proof:
\n" ); document.write( "23+67=90
\n" ); document.write( "90=90
\n" ); document.write( "
