I think he means this
Please help if you know it!
I am not very good with geometry but since SVX is congruent to UTX then SV = UT and VX = TX and SX = UX. This will give you the relationships between all the triangles within the figure. This will show that angle STX is equal to angle UVX. These two angles are equal whenever they are alternate interior angles. This is true whenever VU is parallel to ST. Since this demonstrates VU and ST are parallel, and it is already given that SV and UT are parallel, then that should be it? Someone else should weigh in on this as geometry is not my strong point at all.
