From the image given, if angle 1 is congruent with angle 7 (which we see is obviously not a possibility unless the figure formed by the intersection of the parallel lines is a perfect square), we need to decide on which option is the correct one:

So, since the fact that the lines being parallel cannot be enough to guarantee that the two angles are equal, we select the last option: none.
