Answer:

Theorem for alternate exterior angles.

Explanation:

From the figure attached,

Two lines GN and FH are the parallel lines and a transversal JM is intersecting these lines at two distinct points.

Different pair of angles formed are between these parallel lines,

∠6 ≅ ∠10 [Corresponding angles]

∠8 ≅ ∠10 [Interior alternate angles]

∠6 ≅ ∠13 [Exterior alternate angles]

Therefore, theorem for alternate exterior angles justifies that ∠6 ≅ ∠13.
