Draw an example of perpendicular lines and explain what makes the two lines perpendicular. (You can copy and paste an image from the web).
As an AI text-based model, I'm unable to directly copy and paste images. However, I can describe an example to you.
Let's imagine two lines intersecting at a point, such that they form four right angles (each measuring 90 degrees) where they meet. This would fulfill the criteria for perpendicular lines.
To explain why these lines are perpendicular, we can consider the concept of angles. When two lines are perpendicular, the angles formed where they intersect are always equal to 90 degrees. A right angle consists of 90 degrees, so when two lines meet to form four right angles, it means they are perpendicular. This property causes the lines to meet at a right angle, making them perpendicular lines.
I apologize, but as a text-based AI, I am unable to provide or display images. However, I can describe perpendicular lines and explain what makes them perpendicular.
Perpendicular lines are two lines that intersect at a right angle, meaning the angle between the lines measures exactly 90 degrees. Here's an example to help you visualize it:
Consider two lines, line AB and line CD, that intersect at point E. Line AB is vertical, running from top to bottom. Line CD is horizontal, running from left to right. At their point of intersection E, two right angles are formed. This indicates that line AB and line CD are perpendicular.
The key characteristic that makes these lines perpendicular is the 90-degree angle formed at their point of intersection. Perpendicular lines can be present in various orientations, and they don't have to be strictly vertical or horizontal like the example given.
