Answer:

(c) Yes, because angle 3 and angle 6 are congruent

Explanation:

Angles 3 and 6 are "alternate interior" angles. When those angles are congruent, as these are, then the lines crossed by the transversal are parallel.

__

We expect angles 5 and 6 to be supplementary because they are a linear pair. That fact says nothing about the relationship of line d to line c.
