Answer:

the hypothesis is "two angles are complements"

Explanation:

In the given statement, the hypothesis is "two angles are complements".. While the conclusion is that "they are both acute".

The hypothesis of the two angles being complements is what led to the conclusion that they are both acute since sum of 2 complementary angles is 90° and acute angle is any angle that measures less than 90°.
