Let “n” represent the least of the odd numbers. Then the next two will be:
n + 2 and n + 4 that their sum is 159.

n + (n + 2) + (n + 4) = 159

3n + 6 = 159

3n = 153

n = 51

And to check: 51 + 53 + 55 = 159

Aleks [24]
Sorry I don't see a picture. But...

If they add up to 90 degrees, they are complimentary

If they add up to 180 degrees ( a straight line) they are supplementary.

If they are vertical, they will be on either side, like two v's ><
