Question

identify a pair of alternate exterior angles. choose the correct answer below. a. ∠2 and ∠7 b. ∠6 and ∠8 c. ∠3 and ∠2 d. ∠3 and ∠5

Explanation:

Step1: Recall alternate - exterior angles definition

Alternate - exterior angles are two non - adjacent exterior angles on opposite sides of a transversal.

Step2: Analyze each option

• Option A: $\angle2$ and $\angle7$ are alternate interior angles.
• Option B: $\angle6$ and $\angle8$ are adjacent angles.
• Option C: $\angle3$ and $\angle2$ are vertical angles.
• Option D: $\angle3$ and $\angle5$ are alternate exterior angles as they are non - adjacent exterior angles on opposite sides of the transversal.

Answer:

D. $\angle3$ and $\angle5$
