If two angles are both vertical and supplementary, can we determine the angles?

Is it possible for angles to be both vertical and complementary? If so, can you determine the angles?

Explain your reasoning.

Answer :

Answer:

90 + 90 = 180, 45 + 45 = 90

Step-by-step explanation:

Supplementary angles add up to 180 and to be vertical angles they need to be equal to each other so 2x = 180

x = 90

Hence both angles will be equal to 90

Complementary angles add up to 90 and as previously stated, to be vertical angles they need to be equal to each other so 2x = 90

x = 45

Hence both angles equal to 45

Hope this helped!
