You can put this solution on YOUR website!
The definition of a complementary angle is the measure of an angle that when added to a given angle makes the sum of the two angles equal 90 degrees.

\n" ); document.write( "For this problem, you were given an angle of 89 degrees. How big an angle would you have to add to it to make it become 90 degrees?
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "The answer is 1 degree. The complementary angle for 89 degrees is 1 degree.
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "You are also going to learn about supplementary angles. To give you a head start, the supplementary angle is the measure of angle you have to add to a given angle to make the sum equal 180 degrees. For example, what is the measure of the supplementary angle for 89 degrees? (How many degrees do you have to add to 89 degrees to make the sum equal 180 degrees?) The answer is 180 minus 89, which is 91 degrees.
