\n" ); document.write( "***
\n" ); document.write( "The measure of an angle plus its complement=90˚
\n" ); document.write( "It follows, then: measure of an angle=90˚minus its complement.
\n" ); document.write( "For given problem:
\n" ); document.write( "measure of an angle=90-78=12˚
\n" ); document.write( "
