let x be the measure of angle 2
then 2x is the measure of angle 1

Two angles form a linear pair if the sum of their measures is 180 degrees:

Solve for x; I leave that to you.

Two angles are complements if the sum of their measures is 90 degrees.

Use your answer from the first part of the problem to answer this part. I leave that to you also.
