Given:

Line ST is perpendicular to line PR.


m\angle PQV=32^\circ

To find:

The measure of angle SQU.

Solution:

Line ST is perpendicular to line PR.


m\angle SQR=90^\circ

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


m\angle UQR=m\angle PQV (Vertically opposite angle)


m\angle UQR=32^\circ

Now,


m\angle SQR=m\angle SQU+m\angle UQR


90^\circ=m\angle SQU+32^\circ


90^\circ-32^\circ=m\angle SQU


58^\circ=m\angle SQU

Therefore, the correct option is D.
