Answer:

A

Explanation:

It is given that lines k and p are parallel. You also know that angles 2 and 3 are equal because of vertical angles. Due to the parallel lines, you can say that angles 1 and 2 are equal because they are corresponding angles (same-side).

These two angles are not alternate interior angles because angle 1 is exterior and on the same side as angle 2. The third option would not make sense because you are trying to prove two angles are equal, not that lines are parallel.
