D. 4

Answer 1

Answer: Option (B) is correct.

2 is the alternate interior angle to 7.

Explanation:

Alternate interior angles are angles on the interior sides of a pair of parallel lines but on opposite side of transversal.

For the given diagram , a ║ b and let x be a transversal.

Pairs of Alternate interior angles are

1) 4 and 5

2) 2 and 7

WE have to find the pair of alternate interior angle to 7.

Thus, 2 is the alternate interior angle to 7.

Option (B) is correct.

Answer 2

the alternate interior angle to 7 is angle 2
