ADD THE RATIOS:
\n" ); document.write( "1+5=6
\n" ); document.write( "NOW DIVIDE THE TOTAL DEGREES BY THIS TOTAL:
\n" ); document.write( "180/6=30
\n" ); document.write( "THIS INDICATES THAT EACH UNIT OF THE RATIO HAS A VALUE OF 30.
\n" ); document.write( "THUS 1*30=30 FOR THE SMALLER ANGLE.
\n" ); document.write( "5*30=150 FOR THE LARGER ANGLE.
\n" ); document.write( "PROOFS:
\n" ); document.write( "30+150=180
\n" ); document.write( "-----------
\n" ); document.write( "1/5=30/150
\n" ); document.write( "150=150
\n" ); document.write( "
