Answer:

Law of cross-cutting relationships

Explanation:

This interpretation is based on the law of cross - cutting relationships.

This law states that "faults and fractures that cuts through a rock are younger than the rocks they cut through".

• The igneous intrusion is younger since it cuts through the rock layers.
