Question

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

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: ∠2 and ∠7 are alternate interior angles.
• Option B: ∠3 and ∠2 are adjacent angles.
• Option C: ∠3 and ∠6 are non - adjacent exterior angles on opposite sides of the transversal, so they are alternate exterior angles.
• Option D: ∠6 and ∠8 are adjacent angles.

Answer:

C. ∠3 and ∠6
