Answer with explanation:

In Δ S RT and Δ V RU

ST ║ UV

→ ∠U RV = ∠S RT⇒Vertically opposite angles

→∠RST=∠RVU→→Alternate interior angles as, ST ║ UV.

Also, ∠RU V=∠ R T S→→Alternate interior angles as, ST ║ UV.

Δ S RT ~ Δ V RU⇒[AAA]

When triangles are similar their sides are proportional.


(SR)/(RV)=(TR)/(RU)

In Δ S RU and ΔTR V

∠ S RU = ∠TR V⇒Vertically opposite angles


(SR)/(RV)=(TR)/(RU)

Δ S RU ~ ΔTR V→→[S A S]

So, ΔS UR=ΔT V R , by SAS postulate

Option B

SAS Postulate, as that is what SUR and TVR give.
