No, but they're "supplementary".

Two "complementary" angles add up to 90°. Each right angle is 90° all by itself,

so two of them aren't complementary.

But two "supplementary" angles add up to 180°, and that certainly describes

two right angles of 90° each.

Which term describes two adjacent angles that form a right angle?

Complimentary angles


What is the complement theorem?

If the noncommon sides of two adjacent angles form a right angle, then the angles are complementary angles.


Which angle is formed by the noncommon sides of two adjacent and complementary angles?

A right angle.


What is a kind of angle formed by the noncommon sides of two adjacent and complementary angles?

Right Angle! (:


Are two adjacent angles whose exterior sides are opposite rays always complementary?

No? Wouldn't they then be supplementary? Opposite rays make a straight angle/line, and if the exterior sides made the straight angle, the adjacent angles would be supplementary. ...Right?


The kind of angle formed by the non-common sides of two adjacent and complementary sides?

That would be a right angle: The measure of complementary angles adds up to 90 degrees. Adjacent angles are angles that share one common side and one common vertex, but no common interior points (the angles don't overlap). The non-common sides of two adjacent angles are the two "outside" sides (the unshared sides). Two adjacent and complementary angles would form a right angle split by a ray/line, and not necessarily bisected (perfectly divided in half).


Can an obtuse triangle have two complementary interior angles?

No. A triangle with two complementary interior angles will always result into right triangle. The sum of the complementary angles will always be 90 degrees and the other one will be 90 too.


What is a type of angle?

There are many types of angles such as obtuse, right, acute, complementary, supplementary, adjacent, alternate, corresponding, and opposite angles, just to name a few.


Are to right angles complementary?

Two right angles are supplementary.


What are two adjacent angles whose measures are always supplementary?

Two right angles would always be supplementary because the sum of their angles is 180 degrees.


What adjacent angles mean?

Adjacent angles are angles right next to each other


Can two angles of a right triangle be complementary?

The two angles, other than the right angle itself, MUST be complementary.
