Answer:
The angles measure 21 degrees and 69 degrees.
Step-by-step explanation:
Complementary angles have a sum of 90 degrees when added together.
Let's call the complementary angle x. We can write the angle that we're looking for as in terms of x as x + 48.
Since these angles must sum to 90 we can write the equation and solve:
x + x + 48 = 90
2x + 48 = 90
2x + 48 - 48 = 90 - 48
2x = 42
x = 21
x + 48 = 69
21 degrees and 69 degrees.
