उत्तर
They are complementary angles
Explanation:
Since, ∠D and ∠F are complementary angles.
In ΔDEF,
∠D + ∠E + ∠F = 180° ...[Angle sum property of a triangle]
⇒ ∠D + 90° + ∠F = 180° ...[∵ ∠E = 90°, given]
⇒ ∠D + ∠F = 180° – 90°
⇒ ∠D + ∠F = 90°

Notes
Two angles whose measures add to 180° are known as supplementary angles and two angles whose measures add to 90° are known as complementary angles.
