Since it's a triangle,
\n" ); document.write( " $\"x%2B2x%2B4y=180\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"3x%2B4y=180\"$
\n" ); document.write( "But you know that,
\n" ); document.write( " $\"x%3E56\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"3x%3E168\"$
\n" ); document.write( "Substituting,
\n" ); document.write( " $\"168%2B4y%3C180\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"4y%3C12\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"y%3C3\"$
\n" ); document.write( "Only two possible integer values for y, 1 or 2.
\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "

\n" );
