Use the image to answer the question.

An illustration shows five points upper L, upper M, upper N, upper O, and upper P. Five rays from a common vertex at upper Q extend through the five points. The rays extend beyond the five points with an arrow on one side. The rays upper Q upper L, upper Q upper M, upper Q upper N, upper Q upper O, and upper Q upper P join the points from upper Q. The ray upper Q upper M extends horizontal to the left of upper Q. The ray upper Q upper N extends upward to the left of upper Q. The ray upper Q upper O is inclined upward to the right of upper Q. The ray upper Q upper P is horizontal to the right of upper Q. The ray upper Q upper L extends to the bottom left of upper Q. Angle upper N upper Q upper O is marked with a right angle symbol. Angle upper P upper Q upper O is labeled 50 degrees.

angle upper M upper Q upper L and angle upper L upper Q upper P
are you sure?
I apologize for the incorrect response. The correct answer is:

∠LQM and ∠MQN

(angle upper L upper Q upper M and angle upper M upper Q upper N)
are you sure
I apologize for the confusion. Upon reviewing the given information, the correct answer is:

∠LQP and ∠PQO

(angle upper L upper Q upper P and angle upper P upper Q upper O)

I apologize for the confusion earlier. A complementary angle is formed when the sum of two angles equals 90 degrees. In the given information, the angle labeled as 50 degrees is angle upper P upper Q upper O. Therefore, the angle that is complementary to it would be the angle that, when added to angle upper P upper Q upper O, would equal 90 degrees. From the given options, the angle that satisfies this condition is ∠LQP (angle upper L upper Q upper P). Therefore, ∠LQP and ∠PQO (angle upper P upper Q upper O) are the complementary angles in the image.
