jim_thompson5910 · Answer

Let x be the original angle and y be the complement of that angle

So y = 3x

Since the two angles are complementary, we know that x+y=90, plug in x+3x=90 and solve for x to get 

4x=90
x=90/4
x=22.5

So the first angle is 22.5 degrees while the other angle is 67.5 degrees (since 22.5*3 = 67.5)
