Given information:

AD bisects

We are in a triangle that has been bisected , and therefore, the segment AD cuts the side BC of the triangle in two equal parts.

Also, since AD bisects the angle, <1 equals <2.

Step 1: Angle bisector defines two equal angles, then <1 = <2

They also tell us that angle <3 = <1 (premise)

Then, using transitive property we have:

<1 = <3

and <1 = <2 due to result of a bisection

then using transitive property:

<3 = <1 = <2

<3 = <2

Just lmake sure you use "transitive" property as the reason for the congruency in the last step.
