Answer:

60° and 30°

Explanation:

Complementary angles sum to 90°

sum the parts of the ratio, 6 + 3 = 9 parts

Divide 90° by 9 to find the value of one part of the ratio.

90° ÷ 9 = 10° ← value of 1 part of the ratio, then

6 parts = 6 × 10° = 60°

3 parts = 3 × 10° = 30°

The measure of the angles is 60° and 30°
