\n" );
document.write( "acute angles of a right triangle are in the ratio 4:5
\n" );
document.write( "Let x and (90°-x) represent the angles
\n" );
document.write( "
\n" );
document.write( "Cross multiply to solve for x
\n" );
document.write( "4(90°-x) = 5x
\n" );
document.write( "4*90°-4x = 5x
\n" );
document.write( "360° = 9x
\n" );
document.write( "40° = x        
\n" );
document.write( "40° and 50° are the measures of these acute angles of a right triangle\r
