Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Good night and sweet dreams take care

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's consider one of the angles as x.

And the other angle as (x-38).

As both the angles are complementary, their sum is 90 degree.

So, x +(x-38)=90

=> 2x -38=90

=> 2x = 90 +38

=> 2x = 128

=> x = 128/2

=> x = 64

and (x-38)= 64-38= 26.

Hence, the angles are 64 degree and 26 degree.
