Let us first understand these two types of angles that are mentioned in the question.

Linear pair of angles:

These are adjacent angles and when they are combined they form a 180° angle.

Vertical angles:

These are the opposite angles that are formed when two lines intersect.

Now let us analyze each of the given options.

a. 1 and 3 are a linear pair (wrong) since they are not adjacent angles.

b. 1 and 3 are vertical angles (correct) since they are opposite angles.

c. 8 and 9 are a linear pair (wrong) since they are adjacent but they do not form a 180° angle.

d. 8 and 9 are vertical angles (wrong) since they are not opposite angles.

e. 3 and 4 are a linear pair (correct) since they are adjacent and also form a 180° angle.

f. 3 and 4 are vertical angles​ (wrong) since they are not opposite angles.

Therefore, only option b and e are correct.

b. 1 and 3 are vertical angles (correct) since they are opposite angles.

e. 3 and 4 are a linear pair (correct) since they are adjacent and also form a 180° angle.
