Supplementary angles are angles whose measures have a sum of 180 degrees while complementary angles are two angles whose measures have a sum of 90 degrees.
<h2>Further Explanation:</h2><h3>Angle</h3>
- An angle is defined as the union of two rays with a common endpoint.
- The common end point is known as the vertex of the angle while the rays are known as the sides of the angle.
<h3>Supplementary angles </h3>
- Supplementary angles are two angles whose sum is 180 degrees.
- Supplementary angles form a straight line and have a sum of 180 degrees.
For example;
130 and 50 are supplementary angles
<h3>Complementary angles </h3>
- Complementary angles are two angles whose sum is 90 degrees.
- Complementary angles complement or complete each other.
- These angles form a right angle (L-shape) and their sum is 90 degrees.
For example;
30 and 60 are complementary angles.
<h3>Vertical angles </h3>
- These are two angles whose sides form two pairs of opposite rays straight lines).
<h3>Adjacent angles </h3>
- Adjacent angles are two angles that share a common vertex, a common side and no common interior points.
