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 one of two complementary angles be obtuse?
No, one of two complementary angles cannot be obtuse, because only two acute angles that add up to 90 degrees are complementary and that an obtuse angle on its own is greater than 90 degrees.
Is it true or false that in a parallelogram the opposite angles are complementary?
Generally false. In a parallelogram, the opposite angles are equal. They could be complementary in a highly skewed parallelogram in which one angle is 45 degrees.
When two angles share a vertex and one side?
They are adjacent angles.
Suppose two angles are complementary If one angle has a measure of 62 what is the measure of the second angle?
If two angles are complementary, then they equal 90 degrees. If one angle is 62 degrees we subtract it from 90 and get 38 degrees.
What is the formed when two complementary angles share one ray?
If they share a ray, then they are basically combined together and since complementary angles add up to 90 degree angles a right angle is formed.
What are congruent adjacent complementary angles?
Congruent adjacent complementary angles are two angles of 45° that share one side and its vertex.. which means: A 90° angle divided in two halfs of 45°.
Do complementary angles form a linear pair?
A linear pair is two angles that add up to be 180o.A linear pair is two adjacent, supplementary angles.Adjacent means they share ONE ray.Supplementary means add up to be 180o.Complementary means they add up to be 90o.No, complementary angles cannot EVER form a linear pair.
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 both angles in a pair of complementary angles be obtuse?
No,neither one can, since by definition a pair of complementary angles add to 90 degrees
Are alternate angles complementary?
No. They are congruent. However, if one of the alternate angles is equal to 45, yes they would be complementary, but otherwise, no.
Can one of two complementary angles be obtuse?
No, one of two complementary angles cannot be obtuse, because only two acute angles that add up to 90 degrees are complementary and that an obtuse angle on its own is greater than 90 degrees.
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.
If two angles are complementary and one of them is 32 degrees what must be the measure of the other?
58, complementary means the angles add to 90 degrees
Are the two acute angles in a right triangle supplementary?
No, they are complementary angles. Supplementary angles sum to 180o Complementary angles sum to 90o. The three angles of a triangle sum to 180o. If one is 90o (the right angle), then the other two sum to 180o - 90o = 90o and so are complementary.
When two angles added together equal ninety degrees they are said to be?
Two angles are called complementary angles if the sum of their degree measurements equals 90 degrees. One of the complementary angles is said to be the complement of the other.
What pair of complementary angles such that the difference of their measures is 12?
complementary = 90o. 90 - 12 = 78 and half of 78 is 39 which is one of the angles and the other one is the 12 added to 39 ie 51. Your two angles are therefore 39o and 51o.
