You can put this solution on YOUR website!
1) Let one angle be x. The other angle is 2x+6. The two angles together equal 90
\n" ); document.write( "so
\n" ); document.write( "\"90+=+x+%2B+2x+%2B+6\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"90+=+3x+%2B+6\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"84+=+3x\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"28+=+x\"
\n" ); document.write( "The larger angle is 2*28 + 6 = 62.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "2)Use the same process as problem one for this one.
\n" ); document.write( "Let x be the angle. The complement is then (90-x). The Supplement is (180-x)
\n" ); document.write( "You are told the supplement is 5 times the complement.
\n" ); document.write( "So
\n" ); document.write( "\"5%2A%2890-x%29+=+180-x\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"450+-+5x+=+180+-x\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"270+=+4x\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"67.5+=+x\"
\n" ); document.write( "The complement is 90-67.5 = 22.5
\n" ); document.write( "The supplement is 180 - 67.5 -= 112.5
\n" ); document.write( "The
\n" ); document.write( "
