Two angles are complements if their sum is 90 degrees. The measure of one angle is one third the measure of its complement. Find the measurement of the smaller angle.

Look at the figure below: triangle abc is a right triangle with angle abc equal to 90 degrees. the length of ac is 5 units and the length of ab is 4 units. d is a point above c. triangle adc is a right triangle with angle dac equal to 90 degrees and dc parallel to ab. what is the length, in units, of segment cd?
