    The two angles are

    24.80° and 65.20°

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Let the two angles be x and y be two angles

    As they are complement angles

    x+y=90 - - (A)

    The angle measures 40.4° less than the measure of its complementary angle

    Hence

    x=y-40.40

    x-y=-40.40 - - (B)

    adding A and B

    2x=49.60

    x=24.80

    Hene putting this value in A

    24.80+y=90

    y=90-24.80

    y=60.20
