Answer:

Diagram 5: Not adjacent angles

Diagram 6: Not adjacent angles

Diagram 7: Are adjacent angles

Diagram 8: Are adjacent angles

Explanation:

In order for angles to be adjacent, they need to have all of three things:

1. Have a common vertex

2. Have a common side

3. Must not overlap

Diagram 5 does not have a common side between angles 1 and 2, so it is not adjacent.

Diagram 6 does not even have angles 1 and 2 connected in any way so it is not adjacent.

Diagrams 7 and 8 have all three conditions, so those diagrams are adjacent.
