Question
find an angle complementary with an angle measuring 4pi/5.  That equals 144 degrees right, so how can it be complementary to anything?

Answer
(4pi/5) ± (pi/2) = (8pi ± 5pi)/10 = (13pi/10) or (3pi/10)

just keep in mind the distance between the angles is (pi/2).

For ex: 0 to (pi/2), (pi/2) to pi, pi to (3pi/2), and (3pi/2) to 2pi all form right angles even though they go past the pi/2 mark.
