Two angles are supplements when they add up to 180
\n" ); document.write( "Two angles are complements when they add up to 90\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "First, set up the equation
\n" ); document.write( "\"%28180-X%29%2F2+%2B+25+=+3%2A%2890-X%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "Now simplify the equation
\n" ); document.write( "\"90+-X%2F2+%2B+25+=+270+-+3X\"
\n" ); document.write( "Combine like terms
\n" ); document.write( "\"115+-X%2F2+=+270+-+3X\"
\n" ); document.write( "Add 3X to both sides
\n" ); document.write( "\"115+%2B+2.5X+=+270\"
\n" ); document.write( "Subtract 115 from both sides
\n" ); document.write( "\"2.5X+=+155\"
\n" ); document.write( "Divide both sides by 2.5
\n" ); document.write( "\"highlight%28X+=+62%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "
