ANSWER--
One of the angles is 65˚.
The other is 25˚.
Explanation:
Complementary angles sum to 90˚.
∠1+∠2=90
For our purposes, we will consider the first angle larger and the second angle smaller.
We are given another piece of information: that the difference of the angles is 40˚. Difference means subtraction, so we can construct the following equation.
∠1=40+∠2
(40+∠2)+∠2)=90
Then, we need to simplify to find ∠2.
40+2∠2=90
2∠2=50
∠2=25
Finally, we can plug this value back in to the original equation to find the other angle measure.
∠1+25=90
∠1=65

Answer:
let the two complementary angles be x and y
then, x-y = 40 ...(1)
and, x+y=90 ...(2)
solving 1 and 2 we get
x = 65° and y=25°
