Sagot :

Given:

Line ST is perpendicular to line PR.

[tex]m\angle PQV=32^\circ[/tex]

To find:

The measure of angle SQU.

Solution:

Line ST is perpendicular to line PR.

[tex]m\angle SQR=90^\circ[/tex]

If two lines intersect each other, then the vertically opposite angles are equal.

[tex]m\angle UQR=m\angle PQV[/tex]       (Vertically opposite angle)

[tex]m\angle UQR=32^\circ[/tex]

Now,

[tex]m\angle SQR=m\angle SQU+m\angle UQR[/tex]

[tex]90^\circ=m\angle SQU+32^\circ[/tex]

[tex]90^\circ-32^\circ=m\angle SQU[/tex]

[tex]58^\circ=m\angle SQU[/tex]

Therefore, the correct option is D.
