3. Definition of right triangles

4. Angles 1 and 3 are complementary

4. Interior angles of a triangle add up to 180 degrees (Triangle Interior Angle Sum Theorem), and m<ACB = 90 degrees (definition of right angles), so m<1 + m<3 = 90 degrees (subtraction property of equality). By the definition of complementary angles, angles 1 and 3 are complementary.
