anonymous · Answer

Are you also required to write justifications?  I'll write those anyway in case you get lost.

Angle ZXV ~= Angle ZYU  Given
Line XV ~= Line YU   Given
m<Z = 90 degrees   Given; <Z is a right angle
m<XZV = m<YZU     All measures of right angles are equal.
Angle XZV ~= Angle YZU   All right angles are congruent.
Triangle XZV ~= Triangle YZU    Angle-Angle-Side Theorem
