Class 7Complementary and Supplementary AnglesLines and Angles
  • ANo, because the complement would be negative
  • BYes, always
  • COnly if it is 100°
  • DOnly if it is exactly 90°

Step-by-Step Solution

Complement = 90° − angle. If the angle is more than 90°, the result is negative, which is not a valid angle. So obtuse angles have no complement.
