document.write( "Hi,
\n" );
document.write( "Let x represent the original angle.  it's supplement is (180°- x )
\n" );
document.write( "Write as we Read***
\n" );
document.write( "(180°- x ) = 2x - 150°
\n" );
document.write( "solving for x
\n" );
document.write( "180° + 150° = 3x 
\n" );
document.write( "330° = 3x
\n" );
document.write( "110° = x, the measure of the original angle\r
\n" );
document.write( "\n" );
document.write( "checking our answer
\n" );
document.write( "180° - 110° = 220° - 150° = 70° \n" );
