Solution
The sum of the measures of complementary angles is 90° and that of supplementary angles is 180°.
63°, 27°
Sum of the measures of these angles = 63° + 27°
= 90°
∴ These angles are complementary angles.

The drawings below (Figure), show angles formed by the goalposts at different positions of a football player. The greater the angle, the better chance the player has of scoring a goal. For example, the player has a better chance of scoring a goal from Position A than from Position B.
In Parts (a) and (b) given below it may help to trace the diagrams and draw and measure angles.
- Seven football players are practising their kicks. They are lined up in a straight line in front of the goalpost [Figure]. Which player has the best (the greatest) kicking angle?
- Now the players are lined up as shown in figure. Which player has the best kicking angle?
- Estimate atleast two situations such that the angles formed by different positions of two players are complement to each other.
