\n" ); document.write( "Let x = angle
\n" ); document.write( "then
\n" ); document.write( "90-x = complement of angle
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "x - (90-x) = 62
\n" ); document.write( "x - 90+x = 62
\n" ); document.write( "2x-90 = 62
\n" ); document.write( "2x = 152
\n" ); document.write( "x - 76 degrees
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "Complement:
\n" ); document.write( "90-x = 90-76 = 14 degrees \n" ); document.write( "
