Answer: 67°

Explanation:

Complementary angle refers to the angle that when added together will be equal to 90°.

Let the measurement of the angle's complement be x.

Therefore, the angles are x and 2x + 21. Since it's a complementary angle, therefore,

x + 2x + 21 = 90

3x + 21 = 90

3x = 90 - 21

3x = 69

x = 69°/3

x = 23°

Therefore, the angle will be:

= 2x + 21

= 2(23°) + 21°

= 46° + 21°

= 67°

The angle is 67°.
