Answer:

1 and 5 are complementary angles

Explanation:

A complementary angle is either of two angles whose sum is 90, meaning two opposite angles that add up to 90 degrees.

If you look at angle 3, you see that it is a right angle which is 90 degrees already so any answer containing 3 and another angle is incorrect.

Why 1 and 5 is the correct answer:

the angles 1 and 2 are right next to 3 which is a 90-degree angle, meaning that 1 and 2 add up to 90. angle 5 is opposite of 2 which means that angle 5 and 2 are equal.

So the 1 and 5 would add up to 90, making it the right answer.

Hope this helps you :)
