What are complementary angles?

Can someone explain what complementary angles are? I’d like to understand how two angles add up to 90° and see some examples.
 
Complementary angles are two angles whose measures add up to exactly 90 degrees. Each angle is called the complement of the other, forming a right angle together.
 
Complementary angles are two angles whose measures add up to 90 degrees. They can be adjacent (sharing a common side) or separate. For example, a 30° angle and a 60° angle are complementary. This concept is widely used in geometry and trigonometry for solving problems.
