Answer:

The statement is always true because the sum of the two angles must be 180 degrees to be supplementary. If the first angle is an acute angle, then it has a measure of less than 90 degrees. To sum 180 degrees, the second angle would need to be more than 90 degrees, making it an obtuse angle.

The statement <em>“The supplement of an acute angle is an obtuse angle.”</em> is always true because the sum of any two supplementary angles is 180°, so if one of them less than 90° (acute), then the other must be greater than 90° (obtuse)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us revise some facts about the supplementary angles

  • Supplementary angles are two angles the sum of their measure is 180°
  • The two angles could be right angles or one of them is acute and the other is obtuse
  • The two angles can not be acute angles or obtuse angles

Let us take some examples to explain the facts above

∵ One of two supplementary angles is a right angle

∵ The measure of the right angle is 90°

∵ The sum of the measures of the supplementary angles is 180°

∴ 90 + the measure of the supplement angle = 180

- Subtract 90 from both sides

∴ The measure of the supplement angle = 90°

∴ The supplement of a right angle <u><em>must be</em></u> a right angle

∵ One of two supplementary angles is 70°

∵ Its measure less than 90°

∴ This angle is an acute angle

∵ The sum of the measures of the supplementary angles is 180°

∴ 70 + the measure of the supplement angle = 180

- Subtract 70 from both sides

∴ The measure of the supplement angle = 110°

∵ Its measure greater than 90°

∴ The supplement angle is an obtuse angle

∴ The supplement of an acute angle <u><em>must be</em></u> an obtuse angle

The two supplementary angles can not be acute angles because their sum is less than 180°

The two supplementary angles can not be obtuse angles because their sum is greater than 180°

The statement <em>“The supplement of an acute angle is an obtuse angle.”</em> is always true because the sum of any two supplementary angles is 180°, so if one of them less than 90° (acute), then the other must be greater than 90° (obtuse)

Kelvin claims that a pol yhedron can have 30 edges , 18 faces and 12 vertices . Do you agree with him ? Explain your answer .
AURORKA [14]
Number of faces + (Number of vertices - Number of edges) = 2
So plugging in the numbers it would then be 
18+(12-30)=2
18-18=2
0=2
Kelvin would be wrong and I disagree with him. (Because ...*plugin work cited above*)
