Correct Answer: that angry
Solution : The correct choice is the s econd option.
The error lies in the use of "that" before angry. It should be replaced with the adverb so , which means "to such a great degree", to make the sentence grammatically accurate and convey the intended meaning that he was angry to such an extent that he slammed the book on the table.
Therefore, the correct sentence is: He was so angry that he slammed the book on the table.
