Question

which angles are alternate exterior angles?

options:

• ∠vwy and ∠utr
• ∠vwy and ∠vwt
• ∠vwy and ∠stw
• ∠vwy and ∠utw

Explanation:

Step1: Recall alternate - exterior angles definition

Alternate exterior angles are two non - adjacent angles that lie outside two lines and on opposite sides of a transversal.

Step2: Analyze the given angles

In the given figure, lines SU and VX are intersected by transversal RY. $\angle VWY$ and $\angle UTR$ are non - adjacent, lie outside lines SU and VX and on opposite sides of transversal RY.

Answer:

$\angle VWY$ and $\angle UTR$
