Answer:

The complement of 73° is 17°

The supplement of 73° is 107°

Explanation:

Two angles in a complementary are equal to 90°

For complementary:

73° + x = 90°

x = 90°- 73°

∴ x = 17 °

Two angles in a supplementary are equal to 180°

For supplementary:

73° + x = 180°

x = 180° - 73°

x = 107°
