How B is sufficient to answer the question ?
"Native of" is used for a individual while "Native to" is used for a large group

(1) Angle a + angle b = 180º
(2) angle a + angle c + angle d + angle e = 360º
IMO B
1) the two lines will be parallel when angle a+ angle c=180. (property)
angle c=180-angle b
when b=90, the lines are parallel, but in all other cases lines are not parallel.
NOT SUFF

2)angle a + angle c + angle d + angle e = 360º
angle d+ angle e=180
angle a + angle c=180
SUFF
The powers of two are bloody impolite!!

angle a + angle c = 180. Could you please explain this property which you have used to derive?

However, as I know, these are alternate angles and as per parallel lines property, when a transversal cuts the parallel lines, they form two pair of alternate angles.

How are we assuming these angles are supplementary?

the property is "interior angles on the same side are supplementary"

Option a)
Angle a + angle b = 180.
Also since we can see that for any situation, angle b + angle c will be 180. (On the same line, supplementary).
This angle a + angle b = angle b + angle c.
Thus angle a = angle c. These are alternate angles. If they are equal lines are parallel.
SUFFICIENT

Option b)
Angles a + c + d + e = 360
d + e = 180 (supplementary)
Thus a + c = 180
Case 1: a=c=90. Lines will be parallel.
Case 2: for any other 2 values of a and c, a will not equal c. Hence not parallel.
INSUFFICIENT.

Answer is A.
