If angle a and angle b are complementary, this means that they add to 90 degrees. This also means that they are both acute angles. Since angles b and c are supplementary, and we know that angle b is acute (ie less than 90 degrees), this means that angle c is obtuse

Here's one way you could draw the three angles
