Hello
Two angles are complementary when their sum is 90 degree.
So let one angle be x.
Second be x/2
A.T.Q
x + x/2 = 90
[denominators are different so take LCM and add]
2x + x/ 2 = 90
3x/2 = 90
3x = 90*2
3x = 180
x = 180/3
x = 60
Angle One = x = 60
Second angle = x/2 = 60/2 = 30
The degree of the half angle is 30°.
CHECKING
As mentioned, Two angles are complementary when their sum is 90 degree.
60 + 30 = 90
Hope it helps
Thank you
