Let's call the two angles A and B.
\n" ); document.write( "1.\"A=2B\"
\n" ); document.write( "You also know that
\n" ); document.write( "\"A%2BB%2B90=180\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"A%2BB=90\"
\n" ); document.write( "Use eq. 1 and substitute into this equation,
\n" ); document.write( "\"A%2BB=90\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"%282B%29%2BB=90\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"3B=90\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"B=30\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"A=60\"
\n" ); document.write( "The acute angle with the greater measure is 60 degrees.
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
