Answer:

D: 8 and 2 and then 8 and 6.

Explanation:

Corresponding angles are angles in the same position at an intersection of lines. For example, some of the corresponding angles in this picture are 1 and 7, and 8 and 2. Alternate interior angles are angles that are on the opposite sides of a transversal but are on the inner sides. For example, 8 and 6 and 7 and 5. If you look at all the options and use process of elimination, D will be the only possible answer. For A, 1 and 2 are not corresponding angles, as they are on opposite sides of the same line. For B, 4 and 6 are not alternate interior angles. They are vertical angles, congruent angles mirrored on the opposite side. For C, 7 and 2 are not corresponding angles, as they are not in the same relative position. Therefore, D is the only answer left. 8 and 2 are corresponding angles: they are both on the right side of the lines next to them. 8 and 6 are alternate interior angles, since they are on the opposite sides of the line, but on the inside.
