Answer:

x=37

Step-by-step explanation:

Complementary angles add up to 90 degrees.

Let's first find the measure of the complement.

90-32=58

Now we can set the numerical value of it equal to the expression it gave us.

2x-16=58

We have to isolate x.

Lets add 16 to both sides

2x=74

Divide both sides by 2.

x=37
