Answer:

A. Angles S and V are congruent

Explanation:

When writing similar statements, the order of the letters is extremely important, this is because, in similar triangles:

1- corresponding angles are congruent (equal)

2- corresponding sides are proportional

Now, we are given that:

ΔSTU is similar to ΔVWX

This means that:

∠S is congruent to ∠V

∠T is congruent to ∠W

∠U is congruent to ∠X

Comparing the above congruent angles with the choices, we can conclude that the correct choice is option A

Hope this helps :)
