Answer:

  49.1°, 40.9°

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the smaller angle. Then the larger is x+8.2 and the total of the two angles is ...

  x + (x +8.2) = 90

  2x +8.2 = 90 . . . . . collect terms

  x + 4.1 = 45 . . . . . . .divide by 2

  x = 40.9

  x +8.2 = 49.1

The two angles are 49.1° and 40.9°.
