Answer:

  • Option C is the most suitable option.

Explanation:

We know that:

  • Complementary Angles = Two angles that sum up to 90°

Verification for all options:

  • Option A ⇒ 90 + 1 = 90 ⇒ 91 ≠ 90 (False)
  • Option B ⇒ 36 + 63 = 90 ⇒ 89 ≠ 90 (False)
  • Option C ⇒ 75 + 15 = 90 ⇒ 90 = 90 (True)
  • Option D ⇒ 104 + 76 = 90 ⇒ 180 ≠ 90 (False)

After verifying all options, Option C is the most suitable option.

Hoped this helped.

Answer:

  • C. 75 degrees and 15 degrees

Explanation:

Complementary angles add up to 90 degrees:

  • A) 90 degrees and 1 degree >> No, 90 + 1 ≠ 90
  • B) 36 degrees and 63 degrees >> No, 36 + 63 ≠ 90
  • C) 75 degrees and 15 degrees >> Yes, 75 + 15 = 90
  • D) 104 degrees and 76 degrees >> No, 104 + 76 ≠ 90
