Step1: Recall mid - segment property
A mid - segment of a triangle is parallel to the third side and half its length. In the context of congruence, we use side - angle - side (SAS), angle - side - angle (ASA), etc. criteria.
Step2: Analyze $\triangle TUV\cong\triangle ATM$
We can show congruence by using properties of mid - segments and parallel lines to get equal angles and equal side lengths (by mid - point and mid - segment relationships) to satisfy a congruence criterion like ASA or SAS.
Step3: Analyze $\triangle TUV\cong\triangle PVU$
Again, using properties of parallel lines (due to mid - segment being parallel to a side) and mid - point properties, we can find equal angles and equal side lengths to satisfy a congruence criterion.
Step4: Analyze $\triangle TUV\cong\triangle VNT$
Similar to above, by leveraging the mid - segment characteristics such as parallel lines and mid - point relationships, we can establish congruence using appropriate congruence postulates.
