document.write( "One of the base angles of an isosceles triangle is 2 degrees more than 5 times the vertex angle \"green%28x%29\"
\n" );
document.write( "find the angles; base angle \"%285%28green%28x%29%29%2B2%29\"
\n" );
document.write( "
\n" );
document.write( "Isosceles Triangle, Base angles are equal
\n" );
document.write( " (5x+2) + (5x+2) + x = 180°    |Note:  Sum of the angles in a Triangle = 180° 
\n" );
document.write( "       11x = 176
\n" );
document.write( "         x = 16°  and the Base Angles are 82°    \"%285%2A16+%2B+2%29\"
\n" );

\n" );
document.write( " 16° + 82° + 82° = 180° \n" );
