(i) No. Acute angle is always lesser than 90°. It can be observed that two
angles, even of 89°, cannot add up to 180º.
Therefore, two acute angles cannot be in a supplementary angle pair.
(ii) No. Obtuse angle is always greater than 90°. It can be observed that two angles, even of 91°, will always add up to more than 180°. Therefore, two obtuse angles cannot be in a supplementary angle pair.
(iii) Yes. Right angles are of 90° and 90° + 90° = 180°
∴ Therefore, two right angles form a supplementary angle pair together
Hence verified!
