It is an Adverb. The giveaway is the syllable -ly at the end. Remove it, and you get dangerous - the adjective. Not all adverbs end in -ly, but most do.
The test is, can you put it in a sentence with a noun, or does that sound wrong?
So (dog is a noun)

OR
The angry dog was dangerously.

So (waved is a verb)
He waved the gun dangerous.
OR
He waved the gun dangerously.
