The two angle measurements cannot be supplementary because supplementary angles add up to 180 degrees. If we add 37 degrees and 143 degrees, we get a sum of 180 degrees, which means they are actually complementary angles. So, the reasoning behind the answer is that the angles are complementary, not supplementary.
