"Enraged" can fall into a few different categories.

1) It could be a verb in the past tense.

Ex. "Rachel's hatred of felines enraged all the cat-lovers in the room."

2) It could be a past participle used as an adjective.

Ex. "The enraged cat-lovers threw tomatoes at Rachel."

3) It could be a past participle used to form the past-, present-, or future perfect.

Ex. "Rachel had enraged/has enraged/will have enraged all cat-lovers."

4) It could be a past participle used to form passive voice.

Ex. "The cat-lovers were enraged by Rachel's contempt for cats."
