Observe the figure.

After the given statements as:

Statement 1: UV\parallel WZ

Statement 2: Points S,Q,R and T are all lie on the same plane.

Statement 3: m \angle SQT = 180^\circ

Statement 4: m \angle SQV + m \angle VQT = m \angle SQT

Statement 5: m \angle SQV + m \angle VQT =180^\circ

Now, the next statement is as:

Statement 6: m \angle VQT + m \angle ZRS =180^\circ which is statement III.

(Same side interior angles theorem)

Statement 7: m \angle SQV + m \angle VQT=m \angle VQT + m \angle ZRS which is statement II.

(Substitution property of equality)

Statement 8: m \angle SQV + m \angle VQT-m \angle VQT=m \angle VQT + m \angle ZRS-m \angle VQT

m \angle SQV = m \angle ZRSwhich is statement I.

(Subtraction property of equality)

So, the correct order of the given reasons to complete the proof is III, II, I.

Therefore, Option 4 is the correct answer.
