Solution
Corresponding angles: If the arms on the transversal of a pair of angles are in the same direction and the other arms are on the same side of the transversal, then it is called a pair of corresponding angles.
Corresponding angles
(1) ∠p and ∠w
(2) ∠q and ∠x
(3) ∠r and ∠y
(4) ∠s and ∠z
Alternate interior angles: A pair of angles which are on the opposite side of the transversal and inside the given lines that are intersected by the transversal.
Interior alternate angles
(5) ∠s and ∠x
(6) ∠w and ∠r
