can 2 obtuse angles be a supplementary angle?
Hi Gayathri!
It is known that the angle whose measure is in between 90° and 180° is called an obtuse angle.
Therefore, if two obtuse angles are added; then their sum will be in between 2 × 90° and 2 × 180° .
I.e., the sum of two obtuse angle is in between 180° and 360°.
For instance, let us take two obtuse angles of measures 91° and 92°.
Sum of these angles = 91° + 92° = 183° which is in between 180° and 360°.
For another instance, let us take another two obtuse angles of measures 178° and 179°.
Sum of these angles = 178° + 179° = 357° which is in between 180° and 360°
Similarly, if you add two obtuse angles of any measures; then their sum will be in between 180° and 360°.
Thus, two obtuse angles can never be supplementary angles.
Hope this helps!
Best!
