Final answer:

The angles given, 7° and 83°, add up to 90°, which means they are complementary. The correct answer is A. Complementary.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is about determining the relationship between two given angles: m∠5 = 7° and m∠6 = 83°. To be considered complementary, the sum of the angles must equal 90 degrees. To be considered supplementary, the sum must equal 180 degrees. Adding the given angles, we find that 7° + 83° = 90°, which means the angles are complementary. Therefore, the correct answer is A. Complementary.
