You can put this solution on YOUR website!
x = one angle
\n" ); document.write( "90 - x = complementary angle {complementary angles add up to 90°}\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "x = 90 - x + 86 {one angle is 86° more than its complementary angle}
\n" ); document.write( "x = -x + 176 {combined like terms on right}
\n" ); document.write( "2x = 176 {added x to each side}
\n" ); document.write( "x = 88 {divided each side by 2}
\n" ); document.write( "90 - x = 2 {substituted 88, in for x, into 90 - x}\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "one angle is 88°
\n" ); document.write( "complementary angle is 2°
