Identifying Perpendicular Lines: Visual Analysis of 4 Geometric Figures

Question

Which of the figures show perpendicular lines?

00:00 Which of these lines are perpendicular to each other?

00:02 Perpendicular lines create a right angle at their intersection point

00:05 In this example, the lines form a right angle, therefore they are perpendicular

00:08 In this example, the angle is not right, therefore they are not perpendicular

00:11 In this one too

00:15 In this example, the lines form a right angle, therefore they are perpendicular

00:19 And this is the solution to the question

Perpendicular lines are lines that form a right angle of 90 degrees between them.

It can be observed that in figures 1 and 3, the angles formed by the lines between them are right angles of 90 degrees.
