Let the smaller angle = $\"+alpha+\"$
\n" ); document.write( "The larger angle is $\"+5%2Aalpha+\"$
\n" ); document.write( "--------------------------------------
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+alpha+%2B+5%2Aalpha+=+120+\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+6%2Aalpha+=+120+\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+alpha+=+20+\"$
\n" ); document.write( "and
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+5%2Aalpha+=+100+\"$
\n" ); document.write( "The larger angle is 100 degrees
\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "
