The proof that UX ≅ SV is shown.

Given: △STU an equilateral triangle

∠TXU ≅ ∠TVS

Prove: UX ≅ SV

Triangle T X V is shown. Point S is on side T X and point U is on side T V. A line is drawn from points S to U to form equilateral triangle T S U. Lines are drawn from point S to point V and from point U to point X and intersect at point W.

What is the missing statement in the proof?
