set x is the angle.
\n" ); document.write( "180 - x = supplement
\n" ); document.write( "90 - x = complement
\n" ); document.write( "(180 - x) = 10 + 5(90 - x)
\n" ); document.write( "180 - x = 10 + 450 - 5x
\n" ); document.write( "180 - x = 460 -5x
\n" ); document.write( "add 5x to each side
\n" ); document.write( "180 + 4x = 460
\n" ); document.write( "add -180 to each side
\n" ); document.write( " 4x = 280
\n" ); document.write( "divide each side by 4
\n" ); document.write( " x = 70
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
