Morphology

enraged = enrage (transparent) = en + rage + ed

Formed from the verb 'enrage' with a regular past-participle/adjectival suffix '-ed', so the adjectival meaning 'filled with rage' follows directly.

Etymology

The word enraged comes from the prefix en- 'in' and the word rage 'anger', so it pictures being 'in anger' and explains why enraged means extremely angry.
