Nothing to verify because you did not say what they are.

You want to know them?

Complement angle of 20 deg is 70 deg. ---answer.
Complementary angles are 90 degrees.

Supplement angle of 3pi/5 is
2pi -3pi/5 = (10pi -3pi)/5 = 7pi/5 ---answer.
Supplementary angles are 2pi radians.

I remember it in a very wrong and politically incorrect way. If a person weighed 90 pounds, you might complement them, and if they weighed 180 pounds, you would feed them supper.
