m∠2 = m∠7

and

m∠4 = m∠8

Both are correct answers and should be ticked

Here, we want to select which of the statements must be correct based on the diagram given

a) m∠2 = m∠7

This is correct

m∠2 = m∠3 as they are vertically opposite angles

However, m∠3 = m∠7 as they are vertically opposite angles

b) m∠7 = m∠10

We cannot compare the relationship between b and c as the pair are not parallel lines

c) m∠8 = m∠9

This is not correct also as the pair of lines are not parallel

d) m∠4 = m∠8

These two are corresponding angles, so they are congruent and thus equal in value
