--------------------------------------
An angle whose measure is twice the measure of its complement.
--------------------------------------

x, the angle
90-x, it's complement
x=2%2890-x%29
-
x=180-2x
3x=180
x=60


If you can understand that, then you should have no trouble handling the other question yourself.
