Two angles whose sum is 180 degrees are called supplementary angles.
Explanation:
- If angle A and angle B are supplementary, then:
A+B=180∘A+B=180^\circ A+B=180∘
- These angles can be adjacent (forming a straight line) or non-adjacent.
Examples:
- 120° and 60° are supplementary because 120∘+60∘=180∘120^\circ +60^\circ =180^\circ 120∘+60∘=180∘.
- 90° and 90° are also supplementary.
