You can put this solution on YOUR website!
You have 2 angles that add up to 90 degrees
\n" ); document.write( "The angles are
\n" ); document.write( "\"+x+\" and
\n" ); document.write( "\"+x+%2B+20+\"
\n" ); document.write( "Add the angles
\n" ); document.write( "\"+x+%2B+x+%2B+20+=+90+\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"+2x+%2B+20+=+90+\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"+2x+=+70+\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"+x+=+35+\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"+x+%2B+20+=+55+\"
\n" ); document.write( "So, the angles are 35 degrees and 55 degrees\r
