What are subplementary angles and complementary angles?
Two angles are complementary if the sum of their measures is 90 degrees.Two angles are supplementary if the sum of their measures is 180 degrees.
What are the measures of two complementary angles if the difference in their measures is 10?
40 and 50 degrees
What two angles are----if the sum of their measures in ninety?

What is the complementary angle for an angle that measures 27 degrees?
Complementary angles total 90°. The complementary angle of 27° is 90 -27 = 63°.
Are angles with measures of 11 and 89 degrease complementary?
No

What is the measure of an angle that is complementary to an angle that measures 75 and Acirc and deg?
The complementary angle is 15 degrees
Why do complementary or supplementary angles not have to be adjacent?
complementary angles measures add to 90 and supplementary angles measures add to 180. Whether they are next to each other or not does not matter.
Find the measures of two complementary angles if the difference in their measures is 18?
If x and y are the two angles, then x + y = 90 and x - y = 18 Adding the two equations together gives 2x = 108 so that x = 54 and then y = x - 18 = 36
