The 3 angles add up to 180 degrees (always in a triangle)
\n" ); document.write( "90 + a + 2a = 180
\n" ); document.write( "3a = 180 - 90
\n" ); document.write( "3a = 90
\n" ); document.write( "a = 30
\n" ); document.write( "2a = 60
\n" ); document.write( "this is a 30 - 60 - 90 triangle
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
