Answer:

The complement of an angle can be greater than or Less than or even Equal to the angle.

Explanation:

The complement of an angle is the angle obtained by evaluating the difference of the angle and 90°. The complement of an angle can be greater than or Less than or even Equal to the angle.

For example

Complement of 10°= 90°-10°=80° > 10°

Complement of 60°= 90°-60°=30°<60°

Complement of 45°= 90°-45°=45°=45°
