You will need to know that the sum of "two complementary angles" is 90
therefore
Let x = one angle
then
90-x = second angle
.
Now, we construct our equation based on the sentence:
"The sum of the measures of two complementary angles exceeds the difference of their measures by 86°."
x + 90-x = x-(90-x)+86
90 = x-90+x+86
90 = 2x-90+86
90 = 2x-4
94 = 2x
47 degrees = x (first angle)
.
Second angle:
90-x = 90-47 = 43 degrees (second angle) hope it helps

 PLEASE SEE ATTACHED IMAGE. 
 For this case what you should do is find the area of the triangle which will be given by:
 A = (1/2) * (b) * (h)
 Where
 b: base
 h: height
 Substituting the values we have:
 A = (1/2) * (25 1/2) * (15)
 A = 191.25 feet ^ 2
 Answer:
 she will need 191.25 feet ^ 2 to cover the back of the cabin
