Answer:

∠RSQ and ∠TSQ

Explanation:

Supplementary angles form a straight line or a 180° angle

By looking at the picture , ∠RSQ and ∠TSQ form a straight line or 180 degree angle making these two angles supplementary.

Explanation of other answer choices.

∠RSQ and ∠WVX are on the outside of the parallel lines on opposite ends of the transversal making them opposite exterior angles. Opposite exterior angles are congruent and not supplementary so option 1 is not correct.

∠RSQ and ∠UVS are create a similar angle on the same sides of the parallel lines making these angles corresponding angles which are congruent and not supplementary

∠TSV and ∠RSQ are vertically across from each other making them congruent to each other and not supplementary
