I believe its C. BFD because it is the only angle that "touches" line D, and adjacent means next to.

Answer: The correct option is (C) BFD.

Step-by-step explanation: We are given to find the adjacent angle to angle DFE in the figure.

ADJACENT ANGLES: The two angles that have a common vertex and a common side are called adjacent angles.

Option (A) is Angle AFB:

We can see that angles DFE and AFB have a common vertex F but they do not have a common side. So, the angles are not adjacent.

This option is not correct.

Option (B) is Angle AFC:

We can see that angles DFE and AFC have a common vertex F but they do not have a common side. So, the angles are not adjacent.

This option is not correct.

Option (C) is Angle BFD:

We can see that angles DFE and BFD have a common vertex F and a common side FD. So, the angles are adjacent.

This option is CORRECT.

Option (D) is Angle BFC:

We can see that angles DFE and BFC have a common vertex F but they do not have a common side. So, the angles are not adjacent.

This option is not correct.

Thus, the correct option is (C) BFD.
