Let:\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "x - be the angle
\n" ); document.write( "90-x - be the compliment
\n" ); document.write( "180-x - be the supplement\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Translation:\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " $\"2%28x%29=%2890-x%29-24\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"2x=90-x-24\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"2x%2Bx=66\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"3x=66\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"x=22\"$ \r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "The angle is 22 degrees.
\n" ); document.write( "The compliment is (90-22) = 68 degrees.
\n" ); document.write( "The supplement is(180-22) = 158 degrees.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Hope that helps!\r
