Question

If an acute angle increases, then its supplement

Answer 1

gets smaller.

Explanation:

Quick Answer

To give you a short quick answer, the supplement is going to have to decrease or get smaller.

Example

Suppose the acute angle is 10 (anything under 90 will do).

Then the supplement is going to be 180 - 10 = 170

Now suppose the acute angle increase to 50 degrees.

That means the supplement will go from 180 - 50 = 130

Conclusion

As the acute angle gets bigger, the supplement gets smaller. This is an important idea to get clear. Bigger and Smaller or More or Less can be ugly little words, so anytime you come across them, pay attention. It will make your life in science so much easier.
