Question

question 3 consider the figure below. which angles are complementary to each other? a, b, and c a and c a and b b and c

Explanation:

Step1: Recall complementary - angle definition

Two angles are complementary if their sum is 90 degrees. In the given figure, angle a and angle b together form a right - angle (90 degrees).

Step2: Analyze options

A. A, B, and C: Three angles cannot be complementary in the traditional sense (complementary is defined for pairs of angles summing to 90 degrees).
B. A and C: There is no indication that ∠a+∠c = 90 degrees.
C. A and B: Since ∠a + ∠b=90 degrees (as they form a right - angle), ∠a and ∠b are complementary.
D. B and C: There is no indication that ∠b+∠c = 90 degrees.

Answer:

C. A and B
