angle CMW and angle WML together form angle CML. CMW is a right angle. what is true about angle CML?

Sagot :

CML is a supplementary angle, it can't be a complementary angle because complentary angles are formed by two angles that equal 90 degrees, a
right angle. CMW is a right angle which is 90 degrees so that plus WML
has to equal more than 90, it must be a supplementary angle which is
formed by two angles that equal 180 degrees.

In this given condition, ∠CML could be a supplementary angle but cannot be a complimentary angle.

What is complimentary angle?

Complimentary angles are two angles and the sum of these two angles is  a right angle(90°).

What is a supplementary angle?

Supplementary angles are two angles and the sum of these two angles is  a straight angle(180°).

Here, the given ∠CMW is a right angle. Therefore, ∠CMW = 90°.

∠CML is the sum of two angles, those are ∠CMW and ∠WML.

Therefore, ∠CML = ∠CMW + ∠WML

As the ∠CMW is right angle, then the sum of ∠CMW and ∠WML will be greater than 90°.

Therefore, ∠CML can never be a complimentary angle.

On the other hand, if the value of the ∠WML is 90° then,

∠CML = ∠CMW + ∠WML = 90° + 90° = 180°.

Therefore, ∠CML could be a supplementary angle if ∠WML is a right angle.
