-------------------
If the ext. angle is 93, the corresponding interior angle is 180-93 = 87
-----------------
Then the sum of the remote interior angles is 180-87 = 93
----
Equation:
x + x-13 = 93
2x = 106
x = 53 degrees
x-13 = 40 degrees
Note:: Can't show you a sketch of the triangle and its angles.
