The measures of all the angles in a triangle add up to 180, so\r

\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "m(A) + m(B) + m(C) = 180. Since m(C) = 90, then\r

\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "m(A) + m(B) + 90 = 180\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "m(A) + m(B) = 90, hence they're complementary.
