Answer:

B and C

Explanation:

Since m and n are parallel, we can call the two lines extending from the point B transversals.


m\angle{1} = 60^\circ because they are vertical angles


m\angle{2} = 20^\circ from the corresponding angles theorem.


m\angle{4} = 60^\circ from the corresponding angles theorem.


m\angle{3} = 100^\circ because angle 2 and 4 sum to 80, and
m\angle{2} + m\angle{3} + m\angle{4} = 180^\circ because it is a straight angle.

From this, we can see which ones are true.

A is false because angle 2 is 20 degrees.

B is true because angle 3 is 100 degrees.

C is true because angle 2 + angle 4 = 20 + 60 = 80 degrees.

D is false because angle 2 + angle 3 = 20 + 100 = 120 degrees.

Therefore, only B and C are true.
