Let one angle is x, then the other angle will be x + 12.
We know that Two angles are complementary when they add up to 90 degrees.
x + x + 12 = 90
2x + 12 = 90
2x = 90 - 12
2x = 78
x = 39 degrees.
One angle is 39 degrees.
The Other angle is x + 12 = 39 + 12 = 51 degrees.
Therefore the two angles are 39 and 51.
Hope this helps!
