Solution

(i) Yes

Two acute angles he complement to each other.
Example: 35+55=90
(ii) No

Since two obtuse angles will each be greater than 90, they cannot be complementary to each other.
(iii) No.
Since two right angles will each be equal to 90, they cannot be complement to each other.
(iv) No.
Since the sum of two acute angles is always less than 180, they cannot be supplement to each other.
(v) No.
Since the sum of two obtuse angles is always greater than 180, they cannot be supplementary to each other.
(vi) Yes.
Since the sum of two right angles is 180.

(i.e., 90+90), they are supplementary to each other.
(vii) Yes.

(viii) Yes.

(ix) Yes.

(x) Yes.


(xi) No.
If one angle in a linear pair is acute, then the other angle would be obtuse.

(xii) No.
If one angle in a linear pair is obtuse, the other angle would be acute.

(xiii) Yes.
