\"The ratio of the measures of the acute angles of a right triangle is 3:7.
\n" ); document.write( " Find the measures of the acute angles.\"
\n" ); document.write( ";
\n" ); document.write( "Let x = \"the multiplier
\n" ); document.write( "then
\n" ); document.write( "3x = 1 angle
\n" ); document.write( "and
\n" ); document.write( "7x = the other angle
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "7x + 3x + 90 = 180
\n" ); document.write( "10x = 180 - 90
\n" ); document.write( "10x = 90
\n" ); document.write( "x = 90/10
\n" ); document.write( "x = 9 is the multiplier
\n" ); document.write( "therefore
\n" ); document.write( "3*9 = 27 is one angle
\n" ); document.write( "and
\n" ); document.write( "7*9 = 63 is the other angle \n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
