See explanation below

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, we are told line TV is perpendicular to line US.

This means the point which they intersect has an angle of 90°.

We are also told line TV bisects STU.

For a line to bisect an angle, it means it divided the angle into two equal parts.

When line TV bisects STU, it divided it into angle STR and angle UTR

Hence, ∠STR = ∠UTR

Also line SU and line and line VT intersect to give vertical angles.

Angle R and the angle opposite it are vertical angles.

Vertical angles are equal.

The angle with 90° and the angle opposite it is also a vertical angle.

you can see from the illustration. The two angles opposite each other are equal to 90°.

Since angle on a straight line = 180°

angle R + 90° = 180°

angle R = 180-90

angle R = 90°

All the 4 angles that result from the intersection line VT and line SU are equal to 90°
