There are two supplementary angles, these are:

SOP and QOT.

Which angle is supplementary to SOQ?

Two angles are supplementary if the measure adds up to 180°, so we need to identify the angles that when added to SOQ, give a plane angle.

It is ratter easy to identify them if you know what you are looking for, in the given diagram SOQ has two supplementary angles, one is:

SOP

Because SOQ + SOP gives the angle SOP, which is a plane angle.

The ther one is:

QOT

Because

SOQ + QOT = SOT

Which also is a plane angle.
