Answer:

54

Step-by-step explanation:

The two angles add to 90 degrees since they are complementary

the ratio is 3:2

Multiply by x

3x:2x

Add them together and set equal to 90

3x+2x=90

5x=90

Divide each side by 5

5x/5 = 90/5

x = 18

The first angle is 3*18 = 54

The second angle is 2*18 = 36
