Question Analysis

This question involves the concepts of vertical angles and linear pairs.

Key Concept Explanation

Vertical angles: These are formed when two lines intersect. They are opposite each other and have equal measures.

Linear pair: A pair of adjacent angles that form a straight - line. The sum of angles in a linear pair is .

Step - by - Step Solution

1. Examine the position of angles and :

Angles and are neither opposite to each other (so they are not vertical angles) nor do they form a straight - line together (so they are not a linear pair).
