\n" ); document.write( "

Let larger angle be L
\n" );
document.write( "Then smaller = 180 - L
\n" );
document.write( "180 - L - L = - 45 ----- Negative difference is: - 45
\n" );
document.write( "- 2L = - 45 - 180
\n" );
document.write( "- 2L = - 225
\n" );
document.write( "L, or larger angle =  \n" );
document.write( "

\n" );
