Front

If ∠A and ∠B are complementary angles and ∠A measures 30°, what is the measure of ∠B?

Back

∠B = 60° (because 90° - 30° = 60°).

If ∠C and ∠D are supplementary angles and ∠C measures 120°, what is the measure of ∠D?

Back

∠D = 60° (because 180° - 120° = 60°).

Front

If two angles are adjacent and one measures 45°, what can you say about the other angle if they are supplementary?

Back

The other angle must measure 135° (because 180° - 45° = 135°).
