Practice questions

1 of 7Practice questions for this set

A student claims that two lines are perpendicular because they intersect at a

90°

angle. However, the teacher points out that this reasoning is incomplete based on the precise geometric definition. What additional condition must be verified to ensure the lines are truly perpendicular?
