In drawing B, we observe two right angles, which teaches us that they are practically equal. From this, we can conclude that they are corresponding angles, located at the intersection of two parallel lines.
In drawing A, we only see one right angle, so we cannot deduce that the two lines are parallel.
Answer
B
Exercise #2
What do the 4 figures below have in common?
Video Solution
Step-by-Step Solution
Let's first think about the different definitions of various lines.
We can see that what is common to all of the lines is that they intersect each other, meaning they have a point of intersection.
Remember that lines that cross each other are lines that will meet at a certain point.
Therefore, the correct answer is (a).
Answer
All show intersecting lines.
Exercise #3
Which lines are perpendicular to each other?
Video Solution
Step-by-Step Solution
Let's remember that perpendicular lines are lines that form a right angle of 90 degrees between them.
The only drawing where it can be seen that the lines form a right angle of 90 degrees between them is drawing A.
Answer
Exercise #4
What can be said about the lines shown below?
Video Solution
Step-by-Step Solution
Let's remember the different properties of lines.
The lines are not parallel since they intersect.
The lines are not perpendicular since they do not form a right angle of 90 degrees between them.
Therefore, no answer is correct.
Answer
None of the above.
Exercise #5
Which figure(s) show intersecting lines?
Video Solution
Step-by-Step Solution
Lines that intersect each other are lines that meet or cross each other.
The diagrams showing lines that cross each other are 1 and 3.
In diagram 2, the lines are perpendicular and vertical to each other, while in drawing 4, the lines are parallel to each other.
