Supplementary angles: any pair of angles whose measures add up to 180.
Complementary angles: any pair of angles whose measures add up to 90.

A rectangle has 4 angles. Each angle has a measure of 90 degrees. Since 90+90 = 180, any pair of angles in a rectangle are supplementary. None of them are complementary.
