Question

10/30 - special segments practice l
mr is the altitude of \\( \triangle nmp \\). what is the measure of \\( \angle mrp? \\)
\\( m\angle mrp= \\)

Explanation:

Step1: Recall the definition of an altitude

An altitude of a triangle is a perpendicular segment from a vertex to the line containing the opposite side. So, \(MR\perp NP\).

Step2: Use the property of perpendicular lines

If two lines are perpendicular, the angle between them is \(90^{\circ}\). So, \(m\angle MRP = 90^{\circ}\)

Answer:

\(90\)
