Question
which angles are complementary to ∠adb? select all that apply.
diagram: point d with rays db, da, dc; right angle mark at ∠adb
options: ∠cda, ∠bdc, ∠cdb, ∠bda (some with checkmarks)
Complementary angles sum to \(90^\circ\). From the diagram, \(\angle ADB + \angle BDC = 90^\circ\) (since \(\angle ADC\) is right - angled? Wait, the red mark at \(D\) between \(AD\) and \(CD\)? Wait, no, looking at the diagram, \(\angle ADB\) and \(\angle BDC\) (or \(\angle CDB\) as it's the same angle) should add up to \(90^\circ\) if \(\angle ADC\) is a right angle? Wait, maybe the right angle is between \(AD\) and \(CD\)? Wait, no, the red mark is at \(D\) between \(BD\) and \(AD\)? Wait, no, let's re - examine. The angle \(\angle ADB\) and \(\angle BDC\) (which is the same as \(\angle CDB\)): if \(\angle ADC\) is a right angle (the red mark), then \(\angle ADB+\angle BDC = 90^\circ\), so \(\angle BDC\) (or \(\angle CDB\)) is complementary to \(\angle ADB\). Wait, maybe the initial check marks were wrong. Wait, let's think again. Complementary angles: sum to \(90^\circ\). So if \(\angle ADB\) and \(\angle BDC\) add up to \(90^\circ\) (because \(\angle ADC = 90^\circ\), as per the right - angle symbol at \(D\) between \(AD\) and \(CD\)? Wait, no, the right - angle symbol is between \(BD\) and \(AD\)? Wait, the diagram shows a right - angle mark at \(D\) between \(AD\) and \(BD\)? No, the points are \(B\), \(A\), \(C\) with \(D\) as the vertex. Let's assume that \(\angle ADC\) is a right angle? No, the right - angle mark is between \(AD\) and \(BD\)? Wait, maybe the correct angle is \(\angle BDC\) (or \(\angle CDB\)) because \(\angle ADB+\angle BDC=\angle ADC\), and if \(\angle ADC = 90^\circ\), then \(\angle BDC\) (same as \(\angle CDB\)) is complementary to \(\angle ADB\). Also, maybe \(\angle CDA\) is not, \(\angle BDA\) is the same as \(\angle ADB\), so it can't be. Wait, the original options: \(\angle CDA\) is \(\angle CDA\), \(\angle BDC\) (same as \(\angle CDB\)), \(\angle BDA\) is \(\angle ADB\) itself. So the correct ones should be \(\angle BDC\) (or \(\angle CDB\)) because \(\angle ADB+\angle BDC = 90^\circ\) (assuming \(\angle ADC = 90^\circ\)). Wait, maybe the initial check marks were incorrect. Let's re - define: Complementary angles are two angles whose sum is \(90^\circ\). So if \(\angle ADB\) and \(\angle BDC\) (which is \(\angle CDB\)) add up to \(90^\circ\) (because \(\angle ADC\) is a right angle), then \(\angle BDC\) (or \(\angle CDB\)) is complementary to \(\angle ADB\). \(\angle CDA\) is not, \(\angle BDA\) is the same as \(\angle ADB\), so it's not. So the correct answer should be \(\angle BDC\) (or \(\angle CDB\)). Wait, maybe the diagram has \(\angle ADB\) and \(\angle BDC\) forming a right angle. So the correct angles complementary to \(\angle ADB\) are \(\angle BDC\) (and \(\angle CDB\) since they are the same angle).

\(\angle BDC\) (or \(\angle CDB\)) (Note: If we consider the diagram's right - angle, \(\angle ADB+\angle BDC = 90^\circ\), so \(\angle BDC\) (same as \(\angle CDB\)) is complementary. \(\angle CDA\) and \(\angle BDA\) are not complementary to \(\angle ADB\) ( \(\angle BDA\) is \(\angle ADB\) itself, and \(\angle CDA\) does not sum to \(90^\circ\) with \(\angle ADB\) in the given diagram context). So the correct options are \(\angle BDC\) and \(\angle CDB\) (but they are the same angle, so the answer is \(\angle BDC\) (or \(\angle CDB\))). If we have to choose from the given options, the correct one is \(\angle BDC\) (or \(\angle CDB\)).
