Vertical angles are the angles that are opposite each other when two lines intersect. They are always congruent (they have equal measures).
Given the angles:
- m<1 = 98°
- m<2 = 82°
- m<3 = 98°
- m<4 = 82°
The angles that share a vertex with <1 are <2, <3, and <4. Among these, <3 has the same measure as <1 (both are 98°). Therefore, <3 is the vertical angle to <1.
So, the correct answer is: <3.
