Answer:

c

Explanation:

How to remember which is which? Well, alphabetically they are:

Complementary add to 90°

Supplementary add to 180°

You can also think:

"C" of Complementary is for "Corner" right angle(a Right Angle), and

"S" of Supplementary is for "Straight" (180° is a straight line)

Or you can think:

when you are right you get a compliment (sounds like complement)

"supplement" (like a vitamin supplement) is something extra, so is bigger
