Question

When constructing a perpendicular line through a point on a line, how can you verify that the lines constructed are perpendicular?
A] Check the angles used in the construction with a straightedge to ensure consistency.

B] Check the distance along the lines at several places with a compass to ensure they are the same length.

C] Check the intersecting lines with the corner of a piece of paper to ensure the lines create 90° angles.

D] Check the distance between the lines at several places with a compass to ensure they are equidistant.

Answer 1

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

perpecndicular means they intersect in right angle which is 90°, no matter how long lines are.

Answer 2

Answer:

Your correct answer is C] Check the intersecting lines with the corner of a piece of paper to ensure the lines create 90° angles.

No matter how long the lines are if 90 ° is a right angle
