SOLUTION

STEP 1: Define Supplementary angles

Two angles are called supplementary when their measures add up to 180 degrees.

STEP 2: Define complementary angles

In geometry, complementary angles are defined as two angles whose sum is 90 degrees.

STEP 3: find the sum of


\angle A+\angle B=116+74=190\degree

Since the sum does not fit any of the given definition, therefore the answer is "Neither"
