Question

question 6 (5 points)
listen
identify a pair of perpendicular lines in the given figure.
a) t and q
b) s and q
c) r and p
d) s and t

Explanation:

Step1: Recall Perpendicular Lines Definition

Perpendicular lines intersect at a right angle (\( 90^\circ \)), indicated by a right - angle symbol in a diagram.

Step2: Analyze Each Option

  • Option A: In the figure, lines \( t \) and \( q \) have a right - angle symbol at their intersection, so they are perpendicular.
  • Option B: Lines \( s \) and \( q \) do not have a right - angle symbol at their intersection, so they are not perpendicular.
  • Option C: Lines \( r \) and \( p \) (assuming \( p \) is the line with the right - angle symbol, but from the diagram, \( r \) and the line with the right - angle (related to \( t \) and \( q \)) do not show a right - angle intersection, so they are not perpendicular.
  • Option D: Lines \( s \) and \( t \) do not have a right - angle symbol at their intersection, so they are not perpendicular.

Answer:

A) \( t \) and \( q \)
