Assign a variable to the unknown quantity; create expressions and equation to transcribe the description. \r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "The angle's measure, x.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Using x and the measure of the supplementary angle,
\n" ); document.write( "\"x=-10%2B3%2890-x%29\" AND target to find is also \"180-x\".\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Solve the first longer equation for x, which IS one of the supplementary angles.
