Answer 1

As if she were mad is a subordinate clause.

Explanation:

• In a complex sentence, there are two clauses.
• A dependent or an indpenedent clasue.
• The subordinate clause is one that does not make sense and can not stand on its own as a complete sentence.
• It always contains the subordinate conjunction.
• In the above sentence, the subordinate clause is "as if she were mad".  
• It does not make sense and requires more information to complete the sentence.
