Detailed Solution

We have given two acute angles.
We know that the measure of an acute angle must be less than 90 ° .   If the sum of the measures of any two angles is 180 °   then the angles are called supplementary angles.
If we add two acute angles whose measures are less than 90 ° ,   then the desired result will be less than 180 ° .  
Therefore two acute angles couldn’t form a pair of supplementary angles.
Thus the given statement is not true, and so option (2) is correct.
