Answer:

  32°, 58°

Step-by-step explanation:

The second angle is (3x-38), and their sum is ...

  x +(3x -38) = 90

  4x = 128 . . . . . . . . . add 38 and simplify

  x = 32 . . . . . first angle

  3x -38 = 3·32 -38 = 58 . . . . . . second angle

The measures of the two angles are 32° and 58°.
