do you want the answer or me to explain it to you

Both please, if you don't mind.

ok the answer is b orc and you look The eight angles will together form four pairs of corresponding angles. Angles 1 and 5 constitutes one of the pairs. Corresponding angles are congruent. All angles that have the same position with regards to the parallel lines and the transversal are corresponding pairs e.g. 3 + 7, 4 + 8 and 2 + 6. Angles that are in the area between the parallel lines like angle 2 and 8 above are called interior angles whereas the angles that are on the outside of the two parallel lines like 1 and 6 are called exterior angles. Angles that are on the opposite sides of the transversal are called alternate angles e.g. 1 + 8. All angles that are either exterior angles, interior angles, alternate angles or corresponding angles are all congruent.
