Answer:

1) 25 °

Step-by-step explanation:

Two angles are complementary when the measure of the angles between sum up to 90°;

   Given;

  Angle 1  = a

  Angle 2  = b

        a  = 15 + 2b

 Angle a + Angle b  = 90°  

         15 + 2b + b  = 90

          15 + 3b  = 90

                 3b  = 90 - 15

                 3b  = 75

                    b  = 25°
