Answer:

36°

Step-by-step explanation:

let x be the required angle then

x = [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex] ( 90 - x)  [ complementary angles sum to 90° ]

x = 60 - [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex] x ( add [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex] x to both sides )

[tex]\frac{5}{3}[/tex] x = 60 ( multiply both sides by [tex]\frac{3}{5}[/tex] )

x = 36°

note 36° is [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex] of 54°
