Two perpendicular lines make up a right angle
Yes, the angle between a horizontal line and a vertical line is a right angle. This is because a right angle measures 90 degrees, which is the angle formed when two lines are perpendicular to each other. Since horizontal and vertical lines are defined to be perpendicular, the angle between them is indeed a right angle.
Parallel sides do not intersect. Perpendicular sides intersect at a right angle.
A right angle is an angle that measures exactly 90 degrees on the protractor, wheres perpendicular is simply a word which means 2 lines that meet at one end, the opposite of parallel, which means 2 or more lines that don't meet at the end.
I can be. Perpendicular is a "T", with the stem SOMETIMES moved to the left or right. So, yes, a right angle CAN be perpendicular.
A perpendicular segment refers to a line that cuts another at right angle (90 deg). A perpendicular bisector refers to a line that cuts another at right angle while splitting the two sides equally. In short, it is just a 90 degree line in the midpoint (exact centre) of the other line
perpendicular crosses at a right angle, while intersecting lines don't
The only difference between perpendicular lines and intersecting lines is that perpendicular lines create a right angle at the point of intersection.
No but a right angle is a perpendicular
Parallel sides do not intersect. Perpendicular sides intersect at a right angle.
A right angle is an angle that measures exactly 90 degrees on the protractor, wheres perpendicular is simply a word which means 2 lines that meet at one end, the opposite of parallel, which means 2 or more lines that don't meet at the end.
A perpendicular line is one that is at right angle to another - usually to a horizontal line. A perpendicular bisector is a line which is perpendicular to the line segment joining two identified points and which divides that segment in two.

Like __/ or \__. (in between a straight line and a right angle (perpendicular lines)
You draw a perpendicular at the end of a line segment. You then bisect the right angle formed between the original line and the perpendicular. The resulting angle will be 45 degrees.
A perpendicular segment refers to a line that cuts another at right angle (90 deg). A perpendicular bisector refers to a line that cuts another at right angle while splitting the two sides equally. In short, it is just a 90 degree line in the midpoint (exact centre) of the other line
perpendicular lines always form a right angle
Two of the three lines in a right triangle are perpendicular. Perpendicular lines meet at a 90 degree angle (also called a right angle). All right angle triangles have one right angle.
