Describe two lines that intersect and form right angles. parallel lines perpendicular lines
Parallel lines are two lines that never intersect, so they cannot form right angles.
Perpendicular lines, on the other hand, intersect at a 90-degree or right angle. Here are two examples of perpendicular lines:
1. Line AB: Starting from point A and extending horizontally to the right, and Line CD: Starting from point C and extending vertically upwards. They intersect at point E, forming a right angle at the intersection.

2. Line PQ: Starting from point P and extending upwards diagonally to the right, and Line RS: Starting from point R and extending downwards diagonally to the right. They intersect at point T, forming a right angle at the intersection.
