Question

7 parallel lines p and q are cut by transversal r. complete the sentence below. ∠2 and ∠ are congruent because they are vertical angles.

Explanation:

Step1: Recall the definition of vertical angles

Vertical angles are the angles opposite each other when two lines cross.

Step2: Identify the vertical angle of ∠2

Looking at the diagram, when lines \(r\) and \(q\) intersect, the angle opposite to \(∠2\) is \(∠7\).
