\n" );
document.write( "\"%284%2F11%29+=+%28x%2F%2890-x%29%29\"
\n" );
document.write( "cross multiplying to solve for x
\n" );
document.write( "4(90-x) = 11x
\n" );
document.write( "360 - 4x = 11x
\n" );
document.write( "360 = 15x
\n" );
document.write( "24 = x
\n" );
document.write( "the Complementary angles would be 24 degrees and 66 degrees
\n" );
