x = angle a
\n" ); document.write( "2x = angle b {angle b is twice angle a}
\n" ); document.write( "x + 20 = angle c {angle c is 20 more than angle a}\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "x + 2x + x + 20 = 180 {angles of a triangle add up to 180}
\n" ); document.write( "4x + 20 = 180 {combined like terms}
\n" ); document.write( "4x = 160 {subtracted 20 from each side}
\n" ); document.write( "x = 40 {divided each side by 4}
\n" ); document.write( "2x = 80 {substituted 40, in for x, into 2x}
\n" ); document.write( "x + 20 = 60 {substituted 40, in for x, into x + 20}\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "40°, 60°, and 80° are the three angles
