Given that ∠A and ∠B are complementary, and ∠B and ∠C are complementary We prove that ∠A ≌ ∠C:By definition of complementary angles, m∠A + m∠B = 90° and m∠B + m∠C = 90°.

Then, m∠A + m∠B = m∠B + m∠C by the substitution property of equality.

Subtract m∠B from each side. You get
m∠A = m∠C or ∠A ≅ ∠C
