Answer:

11 and 79 degrees.

Step-by-step explanation:

We can figure it out by making a equation system:

x + y = 90 (complementary angles)

x - y = 68 (difference between the two angles)

From 1st equation, we ge x=90-y. Let 'sreplace into the 2nd equation:

(90- y) - y = 68

90 - 2y = 68

-2y = 68 - 90

y = -22/-2

y = 11

Now, x will be y+68, so x=79
