Supplementary angles
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Look up supplementary in Wiktionary, the free dictionary.
A pair of angles is supplementary if their measurements add up to 180 degrees. If the two supplementary angles are adjacent (i.e. have a common vertex and share a side, but do not have any interior points in common) their non-shared sides form a straight line. The supplement of 170 would be 10.
