The sum of the measures of two acute \n" ); document.write( "---
\n" ); document.write( "Let one of the angle be \"x\".
\n" ); document.write( "Then the other is \"110-x\".
\n" ); document.write( "-------------------
\n" ); document.write( "Equation:
\n" ); document.write( "180-x = 15[90-(110-x)]
\n" ); document.write( "----
\n" ); document.write( "180-x = 15[-20+x]
\n" ); document.write( "---
\n" ); document.write( "180-x = -300+15x
\n" ); document.write( "16x = 480
\n" ); document.write( "x = 30 degrees (one of the angles)
\n" ); document.write( "110-30 = 80 degrees (the other angle)
\n" ); document.write( "========================================
