Solution

The correct option is C

They are complementary angles


When the sum of two angles is 90°, then the angles are known as complementary angles. In simpler words, if two angles add up to form a right angle, then these angles are referred to as complementary angles. Here we say that the two angles complement each other.

Hence, the correct answer is option (c)
