Mathematics

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation: Two angles are called complementary when their measures add to 90 degrees. Two angles are called supplementary when their measures add up to 180 degrees. One way to avoid mixing up these definitions is to note that s comes after c in the alphabet, and 180 is greater than 90.

Supplementary angles are two angles whose measures add up to 180° . The two angles of a linear pair , like ∠1 and ∠2 in the figure below, are always supplementary. But, two angles need not be adjacent to be supplementary. In the next figure, ∠3 and ∠4 are supplementary, because their measures add to 180° .
