How are ∠1 and ∠5 related?

They are same-side interior angles
They are corresponding angles
They are alternate interior angles

The best and most correct answer among the choices provided by the question is the first choice. Angles 1 and 5 are related because they are both same-side interior angles. I hope my answer has come to your help. God bless and have a nice day ahead!

The correct answer is:

They are corresponding angles .

Step-by-step explanation:

The two parallel runways are cut by the taxiway. This taxiway serves as a transversal.

When two parallel lines are cut by a transversal, corresponding angles are angles that are on the same side of the transversal and in the same relative position compared to the parallel lines.

∠1 and ∠5 are both above the taxiway (transversal). They are also both to the right of their corresponding parallel lines. This makes them corresponding angles.
