Use the image to answer the question.

An illustration shows five rays with points near the arrows labeled A, B, C, D, and E in a counterclockwise direction, emerging from a common point labeled O. The points A, O, and E fall on a straight line.

How many angles are adjacent to angle DOC ?

(1 point)

In the illustration described, we have five rays labeled A, B, C, D, and E emerging from a common point O.

To find out how many angles are adjacent to angle DOC, we first identify the angles formed by the rays:

  1. Angle AOB
  2. Angle BOC
  3. Angle COD
  4. Angle DOE
  5. Angle EOA

Angle DOC is specifically between rays OD and OC. The angles adjacent to angle DOC are the ones that share a side with it, which are:

  1. Angle BOC (which is adjacent to angle DOC on one side)
  2. Angle DOE (which is adjacent to angle DOC on the other side)

Thus, there are 2 angles adjacent to angle DOC.
