Hey there,

Your question/statement states: Angle
C is the complement of angle
1, and angle
S is the supplement of angle
1. what is the difference between the measures of angle
S and angle
C

There is not difference between angle
S and
C The reason why would be because they both are congruent to angel
1. If they are both congruent to that angel, then they are both the same shape. One thing that could be the problem is that they may be a different size. Yes they can be a same shape, but there size if different. But, based on what the little excerpt above, I believe that both
S \ and \ C are the same.

Hope this helps.

Complementary angles = 90 degrees

Supplementary angles = 180 degrees


it depends on where angle S and angle C are located with each other

they could be 180-90 = 90 degrees apart

or 180+90 = 270 degrees apart.


You don't show a picture of the relationship of the angles.

but based on their relationship with angle 1, they are 270 degrees apart
