    Let the acute angle be 2x.

    Its complement is 90 - 2x.

    It is given that this complementary angle is less than each of the bisected angle.

    Therefore, 90 - 2x < x

    90 < 3x

    or, x > 30.

    2x > 60

    Therefore, the statement is true for all angles that are greater than 60 degrees.
