Question

how many lines can be constructed through point p that are perpendicular to ab? 2 1 0

Explanation:

Step1: Recall geometric theorem

A fundamental theorem in geometry states that through a given point not on a line, there is exactly one line perpendicular to the given line.

Step2: Apply theorem to the problem

Point P is not on line AB, so only 1 perpendicular line exists through P to AB.
