Question 720423: If A = 58° and B = 32°, then which of the following statements is true?
Angles A and B are neither complementary nor supplementary.
Angles A and B are complementary.
Angles A and B are supplementary.
Angles A and B are both complementary and supplementary.

First you need to know what the difference between complementary and supplementary angles.
Complementary angles- TWO angles that add up together to make 90 degrees. ex: 45degrees + 45degrees = 90degrees
Supplementary angles- TWO angle that add up together to make 180 degrees. ex: 90degrees + 90degrees = 180degrees
Now add 58&32 together.

You should get an answer of 90

So these two angles added together make 90 degrees therefore they are complementary, and then the answer would be "Angles A and B are complementary."
Hope this helps!
