If SRQT ≈ XYVW, what are the corresponding parts?

If two geometric figures, such as quadrilaterals \( SRQT \) and \( XYVW \), are similar (denoted as \( SRQT \approx XYVW \)), then their corresponding parts (sides and angles) are congruent or proportional.

### Corresponding Parts:
- **\( S \) corresponds to \( X \)** (first letter with first letter).
- **\( R \) corresponds to \( Y \)** (second letter with second letter).
- **\( Q \) corresponds to \( V \)** (third letter with third letter).
- **\( T \) corresponds to \( W \)** (fourth letter with fourth letter).

### Corresponding Sides:
- **\( SR \) corresponds to \( XY \)**.
- **\( RQ \) corresponds to \( YV \)**.
- **\( QT \) corresponds to \( VW \)**.
- **\( TS \) corresponds to \( WX \)**.
