how did you get b?

The first thing you need to know to figure this is what complementary and supplementary mean!! Complementary means that the 2 angles will make a right angle when put together and a supplementary means that to angles will make a straight angle when put together!!! A trick to remember this is c comes before s in the alphabet and 90 comes before 180 when counting, so complementary is 90 while supplementary is 180!!! Then you just look at all the choices until you find the one that works!!! I came up with B but you should check my work even though I know I'm right!!!
