180-x - 20 = 2(90 -x)
\n" ); document.write( "180 - x -20 = 180 - 2x
\n" ); document.write( "160 - x = 180 - 2x
\n" ); document.write( "x = 20. This is the angle.
\n" ); document.write( "The complement is 70 degrees.
\n" ); document.write( "the supplement is 160 degrees.
\n" ); document.write( "2(70) = 160 - 20.
