Answer:

∠A and ∠G is the pair of vertical angles.

Explanation:

From the figure attached,

Two lines 'm' and 'n' are two parallel lines. These lines intersect a horizontal line 'l'.

Since, "Pair of opposite angles formed at the point of intersection are the vertical angles and equal in measure."

Therefore, Opposite angles ∠A ≅ ∠G, ∠B ≅ ∠H, ∠C ≅ ∠E and ∠D ≅ ∠F are the vertical angles.

From the given options,

∠A and ∠G is the pair representing the pair of vertical angles and thus congruent.
