Complementary angles sum to 90
\n" ); document.write( "The tow angles are given as a ratio 4:5
\n" ); document.write( "\"4x+%2B+5x+=+90\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"9x+=+90\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"x+=+10\"
\n" ); document.write( "So one angle is 5*10 = 50 degrees
\n" ); document.write( "and the other is 4*10 = 40 degrees
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
