Find the measures of the angles\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " The angles are complementary, means that the sum of their measures is 90 degrees\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Let the two angles be A and B.\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "A+B= 90 \r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "A+ 4*a-20=90\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "5a -20= 90\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "5a = 110\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "A = 22\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "B= 90-22=68\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "So, angle A measures 22 degrees, and angle B measures 68 degrees.\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " |
