Find two complementary angles such that one of the angles is 51 degrees less than 2 times the other angle.
\n" ); document.write( "------
\n" ); document.write( "angle: x
\n" ); document.write( "complementary angle: 90-x
\n" ); document.write( "------------------
\n" ); document.write( "Equation:
\n" ); document.write( "x = 2(90-x)-51
\n" ); document.write( "x = 180-2x-51
\n" ); document.write( "3x = 129
\n" ); document.write( "x = 43 degrees
\n" ); document.write( "90-x = 47
\n" ); document.write( "==============
