Answer:
55 degrees and 35 degrees
Step-by-step explanation:
Take one angle as x and the other as x - 20
We know that the sum of complementry angles is 90 degrees
Therefore, x + x - 20 = 90
2x - 20 = 90
2x = 90 + 20
2x = 110
x = 110/2
x = 55
One angle = x = 55 degrees
Second angle = x - 20 = 55 - 20 = 35 degrees
