Math Problem Statement

Can you name the angle pairs and type the correct code? Please remember to type in ALL CAPS with no spaces.

Solution

Let's analyze the image step-by-step to identify the angle pairs and their corresponding relationships.

Given Angles:

  • Pair 1: Angles 2 and 3
  • Pair 2: Angles 1 and 4

Checking each pair:

  1. Angles 2 and 3:

    • These angles are on opposite sides of the transversal and are located inside the parallel lines. Therefore, they are Alternate Interior Angles.
  2. Angles 1 and 4:

    • These angles are on opposite sides of the transversal and outside the parallel lines. Therefore, they are Alternate Exterior Angles.

Answer Choices Analysis:

  • A: Vertical: This does not apply as vertical angles are non-adjacent and formed by two intersecting lines.
  • B: Complementary: Not applicable, since complementary angles add up to 90 degrees, and these are not guaranteed to do so.
  • C: Alternate Interior: Matches with angles 2 and 3.
  • D: Alternate Exterior: Matches with angles 1 and 4.
  • E: Same-Side Interior: Incorrect because they are on opposite sides.
  • F: Acute Angle Pairs: No information suggests they are all acute.
  • G: Corresponding: Incorrect, as corresponding angles are in the same position relative to the parallel lines.
  • H: Same-Side Exterior: Not applicable.
  • I: Supplementary: No confirmation that they sum to 180 degrees directly from the image.

Therefore, the correct code is:
