Respuesta :

statements are true about the figure
MNL is complementary to KNL. true:
proof  MNL+KNL=90°
KNJ is supplementary to MNL. 
proof 
KNJ + MNL=180°
GNM is supplementary to JNK
proof 
GNM  + JNK=180°

To solve the problem we must know about Complementary Angles and Supplementary Angles.

What are Supplementary Angles?

When the sum of two angles measures up to 180° then these angles are known as supplementary angles of each other.

for example, ∠x + ∠y = 180°, therefore, the ∠x and ∠y are the supplementary angles of each other.

What are Complementary Angles?

When the sum of two angles measures up to 90° then these angles are known as complementary angles of each other.

for example, ∠x + ∠y = 90°, therefore, the ∠x and ∠y are the complementary angles of each other.

Given to us

  • Line JM intersects line GK at point N.

Complementary Angle in the figure

As we know complementary angles are those angles whose sum measures 90°.

therefore, we need two angles that are less than 90° so that their sum is 90°.

We can observe in the figure that only ∠KNl and ∠MNL are less than 90°, and their sum is ∠MNK that is equal to 90°.

Thus, MNL is complementary to KNL.

Supplementary Angle in the figure

As we know supplementary angles are those angles whose sum measures 180°.

We can observe in the figure that from all the options available only ∠GNM and ∠JNK are equal to 90° each, and their sum is equal to 180°.

Thus, GNM is supplementary to JNK.
