This question could be argued over and over. However, my interpretation of "supplementary" is TWO angles add up to be 180. However, there are THREE angles in a triangle, so the angles of a triangle, although they add up to 180, are not supplementary.

Is it possible to draw a triangle with a pair of supplementary angles?
No, because the sum of the 3 angles of a triangle always equals 180 degrees. If two angles are supplementary by definition the two together already sum to 180 degrees, leaving no "space" for the third angle.
Angles that add up to 180?
If all of the angles add to 180 degrees the figure is a triangle. * * * * * That is if they form a plane figure. Angles that add to 1890 degrees are called supplementary angles.
Does a rhombus have opposite angles that are supplementary?
No. The adjacent angles are supplementary.
Are the adjacent angles of a rhombus supplementary?
Yes, adjacent angles are supplementary; however, opposite angles are not.
Are opposite angles in a parallelogram supplementary?
No, they are equal. Adjacent angles are supplementary in a prallelogram.
What is the term for the sum of angles of the triangle?
supplementary angles.
Are acute angles of a right triangle are supplementary?
No, they are complimentary (add to 90°) Supplementary means the two angles add to 180°
Is a triangle supplementary or complementary?
In a right angled triangle, the two non-right angles are complementary, because in a triangle the three angles add to 180°, and 90° has already been taken by the right angle. When two angles add to 90°, we say they "Complement" each other.
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.
Two adjacent supplementary angles are called?
Two adjacent angles are considered supplementary angles. They aggregate and make an angle that measures 180 degrees.
Is An interior angle of a triangle and one of its adjacent exterior angles supplementary?
always
Is it possible to draw a triangle with a pair of supplementary angles?
No, because the sum of the 3 angles of a triangle always equals 180 degrees. If two angles are supplementary by definition the two together already sum to 180 degrees, leaving no "space" for the third angle.
How many supplementary angle are in triangle?
The 3 interior angles of any triangle add up to 180 degrees.
Is it true that Opposite angles of a trapezoid are supplementary?
Wouldn't think so, think of a trapezium shaped like a square with a triangle on one side... The angles at one end of the figure are both 90o, and the angles at the other end will be supplementary, but not opposite angles.
What is the Sum of an exterior angle of a triangle and its adjacent interior angle is called?
They are called supplementary angles.
Angles that add up to 180?
If all of the angles add to 180 degrees the figure is a triangle. * * * * * That is if they form a plane figure. Angles that add to 1890 degrees are called supplementary angles.
What is the sum of the measures of two angles if they are to be considered supplementary?
They would be 180 degrees.
