The complement of an angle is the angle that when added to the given angle results in a sum of $\dfrac{\pi}{2}$ radians (or $90^\circ$). Thus, the complement of angle $1.2$ is $\dfrac{\pi}{2} - 1.2 \approx 0.4$.

The supplement of an angle is the angle that when added to the given angle results in a sum of $\pi$ radians (or $180^\circ$). Thus, the supplement of angle $1.2$ is $\pi - 1.2 \approx 1.9$.

Out of the given options, only choice C has both the correct complement and supplement.
