Answer:

∠RXZ and ∠YXZ is supplementary.

Explanation:

We have to choose the pair of angles from the given options which are supplementary.

Two Angles are supplementary when they add up to 180 degrees.

As we know the linear pair are adjacent angles formed by two intersecting lines. The measure of a straight angle is 180 so linear pair of angles must add up to 180 degrees.

∠RXZ and ∠YXZ pair of angles formed on the straight line RY when line XZ intersects and angle on the straight line is 180 hence, supplementary.

Rest three pair of angles not formed on straight line.

Therefore, option 1 is correct.
