x, the angle
180-x, the supplement
90-x, the complement

Building the equation:
x=%28something%29-%28anothersomething%29
x=%28supplement%29-%282%2Acomplement%29
x=%28180-x%29-2%2890-x%29

You do the rest.

The measure of an angle is equal to the difference between a supplement this is the angle and twice the complement of the angle. find the angle
If what you mean is translated as: A = 180 - A - 2(90 - A), then it's impossible to get an angle

measurement, since A, or angle measurement would be 0, and angle measurement CANNOT = 0 (A+%3C%3E+0).
