Question

select the correct answer. determine whether the supplement of a right angle is. an acute angle a right angle an obtuse angle a straight angle

Explanation:

Step1: Recall the definition of supplementary angles

Two angles are supplementary if their sum is \(180^{\circ}\). Let the right - angle be \(90^{\circ}\), and let its supplement be \(x\). Then, by the definition of supplementary angles, \(90^{\circ}+x = 180^{\circ}\).

Step2: Solve for \(x\)

Subtract \(90^{\circ}\) from both sides of the equation \(90^{\circ}+x = 180^{\circ}\). We get \(x=180^{\circ}-90^{\circ}=90^{\circ}\).

Answer:

B. A Right angle
