X+(X-14)=90
\n" ); document.write( "2X-14=90
\n" ); document.write( "2X=90+14
\n" ); document.write( "2X=104
\n" ); document.write( "X=104/2
\n" ); document.write( "X=52 DEGREES FOR THE LARGER ANGLE.
\n" ); document.write( "52-14=38 DEGREES FOR THE SMALLER ANGLE.
\n" ); document.write( "PROOF:
\n" ); document.write( "52+38=90
\n" ); document.write( "90=90
