Answer:

20° and 70°

Step-by-step explanation:

complimentary angle sum to 90°

let x be the compliment then the angle is 3x + 10 , so

x + 3x + 10 = 90 , that is

4x + 10 = 90 ( subtract 10 from both sides )

4x = 80 ( divide both sides by 4 )

x = 20

3x + 10 = 3(20) + 10 = 60 + 10 = 70

the 2 angle measures are 20° and 70°
