A dependent clause can be used as an adjective when it qualifies a noun or a pronoun or as an adverb when it qualifies another adverb, a verb, or an adjective.

This is the rule we will use to classify the underlined dependent clauses.

1. that will improve his condition (adjective: qualifies "anything")

2. which is on the roof of the barn (adjective: qualifies "weather vane")

3. after I received your report (adverb: qualifies "went")

4. Unless the directions are followed carefully (adverb: qualifies "satisfactory")

5. whose car is blocking the driveway (adjective: qualifies "the person")

6. where the road forks (adverb: qualifies "wait")

7. before you make up your mind (adverb: qualifies "read")

8. who is the eighth president of the US (adjective: qualifies "Martin Van Buren")

9. that is on your desk (adjective: qualifies "the book")

10. that you ordered for the kitchen wall (adjective: qualifies "the paint")

Thus, while a dependent clause cannot stand alone as a sentence (unlike an independent clause) because of the presence of a subordinating conjunction, it may serve as either an adjective or an adverb.
