yes. the supplement adds to the acute angle to make 180 degrees. An acute angle is less than 90 degrees. Example: acute angle is 30 degrees. 180-30 is 150, which is obtuse.

What is the supplement of an obtuse angle?

An obtuse angle is one over 90 degrees. If you are looking for the supplement it means that both angles have to equal 180 degrees. So the supplement of an obtuse angle would be an acute angle.


An angle that is the supplement of an acute angle must be what?

If one angle is the supplement of another, we know that their sum is 180 degrees.So let one angle be A and the supplement be B. We know the measure of A+B=180.If A is acute that means its measure is less than 90 degrees. The supplement must therefore have measure more than 90 degrees. We could say the supplement of an acute angle must be an obtuse angle. Remember obtuse angle is one that less than 180 degrees and more than 90.


Explain Why an angle that is supplementary to an acute angle must be an obtuse angle?

If x is acute, then x < 90 and -x > -90. Adding 180 to both sides, 180-x > 90, i.e. the supplement of x is obtuse.
