hello!

Complementary angles add up to
\sf{90^\circ}.

In order to find the complement of the given angle, we should set up the following equation:-

(let n be the unknown angle)


\sf{n+58=90}

Subtract 58 from both sides:-


\bigstar{\boxed{\pmb{n=32}}

Hence, the complement of the angle is 32 degrees.

note:-

Hope everything is clear; if you need any explanation/clarification, kindly let me know, and I will comment and/or edit my answer :)
