What does complementary mean?

jhonyy9 (jhonyy9):

first of all do you know what mean complementary angles ?

jhonyy9 (jhonyy9):

two angles what ,make how many degree ?

OpenStudy (yinshy):

Two Angles are Complementary when they add up to 90 degrees (a Right Angle). They don't have to be next to each other, just so long as the total is 90 degrees.

OpenStudy (aveline):

Right, so x+12=90

OpenStudy (yinshy):

so A

jhonyy9 (jhonyy9):

OpenStudy (aveline):

Correct :)
