Question

elect the correct answer.
which statement is the contrapositive of p?
p: if two angles are complementary, then the sum of their measures is 9
a. if two angles arent complementary, then the sum of their measur
b. if the sum of the measures of two angles isnt 90°, then they are n
c. if two angles arent complementary, then the sum of their measur
d. if the sum of the measures of two angles is 90°, then they are cor

Explanation:

A contrapositive of a statement "If \(A\), then \(B\)" is "If not \(B\), then not \(A\)". For the given statement \(p\): "If two angles are complementary (\(A\)), then the sum of their measures is \(90^\circ\) (\(B\))", the contrapositive swaps and negates both parts: "If the sum of the measures of two angles isn't \(90^\circ\) (not \(B\)), then they are not complementary (not \(A\))".

Answer:

B. If the sum of the measures of two angles isn’t \(90^\circ\), then they are not complementary
