Let $\"A\"$ and $\"B\"$ be the complementary angles.
\n" ); document.write( " $\"A=4x%2B3\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"B=2x%2B21\"$
\n" ); document.write( "By definition,
\n" ); document.write( " $\"A%2BB=90\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"4x%2B3%2B2x%2B21=90\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"6x%2B24=90\"$
\n" ); document.write( "Solve for $\"x\"$ .
\n" ); document.write( "Then go back and substitute to find $\"A\"$ and $\"B\"$ .
\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "
