Is v a perpendicular line?

A 'v' does not make a perpendicular line. Perpendicular lines meet each other at a ninety degree angle, whereas the angle made by the two lines in a 'v' is closer to forty-five degrees. A letter that has two perpendicular lines is the letter 'T'.


What is an angle made by perpendicular lines?

90 degree or Right Angle


What is the difference between oblique offset and perpendicular offset?

The measurements are taken at right angle to the survey line called perpendicular or right angled offsets. The measurements which are not made at right angles to the survey line are called oblique offsets or tie line offsets.


What is angle of incidence of light?

The angle of incidence of light is the angle between the incoming light ray and the normal (a line perpendicular to the surface) of the medium the light is traveling through. It is measured from the normal to the incident ray.


Which figure contains a pair of perpendicular line segments?

Two ways to determine if two line segments are perpendicular:1. Determine the angle formed: if the angle made by the two line segments is 90 degrees, then they are perpendicular. This can sometimes be done visually if the graph has grids, but probably not what the question is asking you to do.2. Compare slopes*: if the slopes are negative inverses of each other, they are perpendicular. For example, if the slope of one line is 5, the slope for the other line would need to be -1/5, or -0.2. An easy way to remember, is if the product of the two slopes is -1, they are perpendicular.*Side note: slope is "rise over run", or change in y divided by change in x


Exmples of a perpendicular?

perpendicular line? if that's the case, imagine a plus sign.any of the right corners that are made near the center are perpendicular.


Can a triangle have perpendicular sides?

A triangle can have one angle made up of perpendicular lines. That would be called a right triangle. A triangle cannot have more than one angle made up of perpendicular lines however. To see why, remember that an angle created by two perpendicular lines is 90 degrees and a triangle is made up of three angles that sum to 180 degrees. If two angles were 90 degrees the third angle would have to be 0 degrees, in which case the shape is no longer a triangle.


What is made by combining two rays at their endpoints?

An angle.


What is a angle and what is a side?

An angle is made of 2 lines but aside is made of 1 line


The angle of incidence is always greater than the angle of reflection?

No, the angle of reflection is always equal to the angle of incidence according to the law of reflection. When light or other waves reflect off a surface, the angle they make with the normal (perpendicular line) to the surface upon reflection is the same as the angle they made with the normal upon incidence.


What made of two lines that perpendicular to each other?
