Solution
Complementary angles are two angles that have the sum of 90°.
Would you like further explanation or examples of complementary angles?
Here are some additional questions to expand on the concept:
- What are supplementary angles, and how do they differ from complementary angles?
- How can we determine if two angles are complementary or not?
- Can complementary angles be greater than 90° if combined with other angles?
- What would be the complement of a 45° angle?
- How are complementary angles used in trigonometry?
Tip: Complementary angles are often found in right triangles, where the two non-right angles add up to 90°.
