Which one of the following sentences contains a predicate adjective?

AWe scanned the distant shore for signs of life.
BThe teacher appeared angry when Dave forgot his homework.
CWhat does this hard lesson teach you?

Verified Answer :

A predicate adjective is an adjective that follows a linking verb (a verb such as "is" "looks", "appears") and which modifies the subject of the sentence.

Here the linking verb is "appeared" and the adjective is "angry" and the sentence with a predicate adjective is B. The teacher appeared angry when Dave forgot his homework, where the predicate adjective is "appeared angry"
