Hello!! I haven't studied or practiced this type of question for a while, but believe I can help you anyway. If and only if lines s and t are parallel, which they appear to be, then the angle that line t makes with line d is 90 degrees, just as the angle that line s makes with line d is 90 degrees. If the former is 90 degrees, that immediately implies that lines t and d are perpendicular.

would that be the Perpendicular Transversal Theroem? @mathmale

To be bluntly honest, I don't know. To answer this question, I would have to look up all four of the possible answer choices, which I urge you to do. It's possible that one or more of these fancy-sounding theorems are nothing but hot air ... inventions!

@ILovePuppiesLol The theorem that comes to mind is this: In a plane, if a line is perpendicular to one of two parallel lines, then it is perpendicular to the other one also. I think you are correct in marking the Perpendicular Transversal Theorem.
