Explanation:

To identify the angle pair, we analyze the positions of the angles formed by a transversal intersecting two parallel lines. Vertical angles are formed when two lines intersect, and they are opposite each other, sharing a common vertex and being equal in measure. In the given diagram, the angles at points \( p \) and \( q \) (formed by the transversal and the parallel lines) are vertical angles as they are opposite each other at the intersection of the transversal with the parallel lines. Corresponding angles are in the same relative position, alternate interior/exterior are on opposite sides of the transversal (interior/exterior of the parallel lines), and same - side interior are on the same side of the transversal between the parallel lines. So the correct angle pair is Vertical.

Answer:

Vertical
