Two angles are said to be supplementary when the sum of the two angles is 180 degrees. When a transversal intersects with two parallel lines eight angles are produced. The eight angles will together form four pairs of corresponding angels.

No since a complimentary angle is when the two angles add together to make 90°. a transversal is like a line cutting through the two parallel lines so it is not possible for it to have complimentary angles.
PS. Is this confusing?
