        The solution in the post by @mananth is incorrect due to his arithmetic errors.

        I came to bring a correct solution.



Let the angle be x
the complement will be 90-x
x = (90-x) + 60
x = 90 + 60 - x
2x = 150
x = 150/2 = 75 degrees
the complement will be 15 degrees.


Solved correctly.
