Complementary angles are two angles that add up to 90 degrees.

In this case:

  • The sum of 45° and 50° is 95° (not complementary).
  • The sum of 50° and 50° is 100° (not complementary).
  • The sum of 90° and 100° is 190° (not applicable here).
  • The sum of 45° and 45° is 90° (complementary).

Therefore, the two angles that correspond to complementary angles are 45° and 45°.
