A figure consists of four angles. The angle measures are as follows: m/1 = 65°, m/2 = 90°, m/3 = 30°, and m/4 = 25°. Which two angles are

complementary angles? Identify by the angle number and not the degree measurement. List the smaller angle value first and the larger angle value second.

Two angles are said to be complementary if their measures add up to 90 degrees.

Given that m/2 = 90°, it follows that the two angles that are complementary to angle 2 are angles 3 and 4.

Thus, the two complementary angles in this figure are angle 3 and angle 4, with angle 3 being smaller (30°) and angle 4 being larger (25°).

So, the two complementary angles are angle 3 and angle 4.
