A complementary angle would be 90-x. in this case, x is 48°, so set up the equation 90-48 = other angle. this would give you 42, so the answer is A.
Remark
The formula for this series is
t_n = n^2 - 1
Explanation
If the series ends at 288, then the highest value n can have is 17
So you would write t_n = n^2 - 1 {n| 1 ≤ n ≤17}
If you said this to someone, you would say "t_n = n squared minus 1 where n is such that 1 is greater than or equal to 1 or less than or equal to 17"
Example
What is the 4th term in this series?
t_4 = 4^2 - 1
t_4 = 16 - 1
t_4 = 15
