Explanation:

Complementary angles add up to 90 degrees, so if one angle is known, the measure of its complement can be found by subtracting it from 90 degrees.

If <A is 16 degrees, then <B is 90 - 16 = 74 degrees.

If <A is 34 degrees, then <B is 90 - 34 = 56 degrees.

If <A is 46 degrees, then <B is 90 - 46 = 44 degrees.

If <A is 100 degrees, then <B is 90 - 100 = -10 degrees. However, angles can't be negative, so this solution is not valid.
