Answer:

89 degrees

Explanations:

The sum of an angle and its complement is equal to 90 degrees.

Let the measure of the complement be "x"

Given the information below:

Angle = 1 degrees

Taking the sum of the angle and its complement will give:


x+1^0=90^0

Subtract 1 from both sides


\begin{gathered} x+1-1=90-1 \\ x+0=90-1 \\ x=89^0 \end{gathered}

Therefore the measure of the complement for the angle given is 89 degrees
