The resistance in an asymmetric double-well structure was measured as a function of magnetic fields oriented almost parallel to the plane of the electron layer. It was shown that the shape of the magnetoresistance curves is close to the in-plane magnetic-field-dependent density of states which we obtained by self-consistent numerical calculation. The novel feature is the negative magnetoresistance observed at low magnetic fields.
