Let x be angle A. Then we have:\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Angle A = x \n" ); document.write( "Angle B = 5*x \n" ); document.write( "Angle C = 4*x - 4\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "The sum of these must be 180 so: \n" ); document.write( "x + 5*x + (4*x - 4) = 180\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Solve the above for x then calculate 5*x and 4*x - 1. \r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " |
