The measure of ∠CAF is 25 degrees.
∠DAE ≌ ∠FAB.
∠BAF and ∠EAB are complementary.

Answer:

The statement "
\angle BAF and
\angle EAB are complimentary" is false.

Explanation:

Complimentary angles are defined by angles that add up to
90^(\circ). Angles BAF and EAB represent one side of a line, which is
180^(\circ). Therefore, they are actually supplementary and not complimentary. Thus, the statement "
\angle BAF and
\angle EAB are complimentary" is false.
