Re: SUPPLEMENTARY and COMPLEMENTARY ANGLES

Check 11 right away. I am not saying that is the only, but it does jump right out at you.

Are the first part of the question, 1 - 5 supplementary?


In mathematics, you don't understand things. You just get used to them.
If it ain't broke, fix it until it is.
Always satisfy the Prime Directive of getting the right answer above all else.

B for 11 is not correct. The sum of the angles of a triangle is 180 degrees.

Re: SUPPLEMENTARY and COMPLEMENTARY ANGLES

Two angles are called complementary if they add up to 90 degrees.

So let us call the second angle b. From the definition we know that a + b = 90. Understand so far?
