Question 823991: Right triangle ABC. B is a right angle
Given: right triangle ABC
Prove: angle A and angle C are complementary

The sum of the measures of the angles of a triangle is 180 degrees. The measure of a right angle is 90 degrees. Therefore A+B+C=180, A+90+C=180, A+C=90 , and so A and C are complementary
