Flashcard 3 - Math Flashcard Set for the SHSAT

Back

supplementary; complementary


Explanation:

Supplementary angles are pairs of angles that add to \(180^{\circ}\). They create straight lines and can be used to solve for unknown angles in geometric figures.

Complementary angles, on the other hand, add to \(90^{\circ}\). They create right angles and are useful for determining angles in shapes like rectangles and squares.
