So, I see that we are given straight lines, and since straight angles are , and supplementary means adding up to the angles on a line must be supplementary, so that means angles on the same side of a line are supplementary so the angles they are seeing are supplementary.

Student C

When you translate the lines so that point lands on point , we know that all of the angles will line up because the lines are parallel, and when you translate, every point moves the same distance so the parallel lines will coincide. And since point and are on the same line to start with all of the angles with as a vertex will coincide with the angles as as a vertex. So, lands on top of , which forms a linear pair with , so and are supplementary.
