1. **Problem Statement:** Given that lines BA and DC are parallel, identify the type of angle pair formed by \(\angle 1\) and \(\angle 4\), and determine if they are congruent or supplementary.
2. **Relevant Concepts:** When two parallel lines are cut by a transversal, several angle relationships arise:
- Corresponding angles are congruent.
- Alternate interior angles are congruent.
- Alternate exterior angles are congruent.
- Consecutive interior angles (same side interior) are supplementary.
3. **Identify the Angles:** \(\angle 1\) and \(\angle 4\) are on opposite sides of the transversal and outside the parallel lines BA and DC.
4. **Type of Angles:** Since they are on opposite sides of the transversal and outside the parallel lines, \(\angle 1\) and \(\angle 4\) are **alternate exterior angles**.
5. **Angle Relationship:** Alternate exterior angles are congruent when the lines are parallel.
6. **Conclusion:** \(\angle 1\) and \(\angle 4\) are alternate exterior angles and are congruent.
**Final answer:** \(\angle 1\) and \(\angle 4\) are alternate exterior angles and are congruent.
