let angles be z,x,and y
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "z+x=90........eq 1
\n" ); document.write( "z+y=180.......eq 2
\n" ); document.write( "z+x+y=200.....eq 3
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "rewrite eq 1 to x=90-z and eq 2 to y=180-z and plug those values into eq 3
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "z+90-z+180-z=200
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "-z=-70
