Well, in a right triangle, one angle is 90 degrees.

Since the total of all of the angles are 180, you can subtract 90 from that since you only need the two acute angles:
180-90=90

Now you know that the two angles will add up to 90 no matter what each is. So, they are complementary, or B.

Hope this helped!

The acute angles of a right angle triangle are complementary

A right angle triangle has one of it angles as 90 degrees.

The sum of angles in a triangle is equals to 180 degrees.

Since one angle equals to 90 degree, the remaining 2 angles of the triangle

will be 180 - 90 = 90 degrees.

Therefore, the remaining 2 angles sum up to 90 degree.

This means they are complementary.

Complementary angles sum up to 90 degrees.
