Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

If the sum of two angles is 90 degrees, what are these angles called? (2021)
  • Step 1: Understand what an angle is. An angle is formed by two rays that meet at a point called the vertex.
  • Step 2: Know that angles are measured in degrees. A full circle is 360 degrees.
  • Step 3: Learn that when two angles add up to 90 degrees, they have a special name.
  • Step 4: The special name for angles that add up to 90 degrees is 'complementary angles.'
  • Step 5: Remember that if you have one angle, you can find its complementary angle by subtracting it from 90 degrees.
  • Complementary Angles – Angles that add up to 90 degrees.
