Answer: d. right angles.

Explanation:

  • If the sum of two angles is
    180^(\circ), then they are called as supplementary angles.
  • If two angles are equal then they are said to be congruent.

Let a and b be two angles which are congruent and supplementary

Then a=b [congruent]

And
a+b=180^(\circ)


2a=180^(\circ)\\\Rightarrow a=90^(\circ)

Hence, the angles that are congruent and supplementary must be right angles.
