50 and 40 degrees.


\n" ); document.write( "The angles are 5x and 4x because 5x:4x is 5:4.


\n" ); document.write( "Complimentary angles equal 90 degrees.


\n" ); document.write( "5x + 4x = 90


\n" ); document.write( "9x=90


\n" ); document.write( "x=10


\n" ); document.write( "The angles are 5x=50 and 4x=40


\n" ); document.write( "
