SUPPLEMENTARY angles are angles which sum to 180 degrees.
COMPLEMENTARY angles sum to 90 degrees.

You are asking for some angle, x, such that x+215=90. Is this really what you want? If so, then good. Do it.
x+215-215=90-215
x=-125 degrees.
(That is, negative 125.)

This would be a rotation of the unit vector on the unit circle clockwise by 125 degrees.
