Large angle: a
\n" ); document.write( "Small angle: b
\n" ); document.write( "a = 5b+6
\n" ); document.write( "2a-4b = 92
\n" ); document.write( "substitute for a:
\n" ); document.write( "2(5b+6)-4b = 92
\n" ); document.write( "10b+12-4b = 92
\n" ); document.write( "6b = 80
\n" ); document.write( "b = 13.3333
\n" ); document.write( "a = 5b+6 = 72.6665
\n" ); document.write( "---------------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "Check:
\n" ); document.write( "2a-4b = 92
\n" ); document.write( "2(72.6665)-4(13.3333) = 92 Correct
\n" ); document.write( "
