(a) an angle measures 46°. what is the measure of its complement? (b) an angle measures 62°. what is the measure of its supplement? measure of the complement: measure of the supplement:

Explanation:

Step1: Recall the definition of complementary angles

Complementary angles add up to 90°.

Step2: Calculate the complement of 46°

$90 - 46=44$

Step3: Recall the definition of supplementary angles

Supplementary angles add up to 180°.

Step4: Calculate the supplement of 62°

$180 - 62 = 118$

Answer:

(a) 44°
(b) 118°
