(N/A) We are given:
$\angle ABC = \angle ACB$ ...$(1)$
$\angle 3 = \angle 4$ ...$(2)$
According to Euclid's Axiom $3$,if equals are subtracted from equals,the remainders are equal.
Subtracting equation $(2)$ from equation $(1)$,we get:
$\angle ABC - \angle 4 = \angle ACB - \angle 3$
From the figure,$\angle ABC - \angle 4 = \angle 1$ and $\angle ACB - \angle 3 = \angle 2$.
Therefore,$\angle 1 = \angle 2$.
