If you measure the angle between them and it's exactly 90 degrees, then they're perpendicular.
That's the definition and the requirement.
Perpendicular lines form a "corner", but if you want to be technical about it, that's not
a good way to tell. The angle might be only 87 degrees, or it might be 92 degrees, and
when you look at it, it may look like a corner. But technically, if it's not 90 degrees then
they're not perpendicular.

What is Perpendicular and Parallel?
Perpendicular is when two lines cross... Parallel is when two lines never meet.... _____________ _____________ = PARALLEL LINES If they cross they are perpendicular, if they don't, they are parallel.
What type of angle is formed by perpendicular lines?
Right angles are formed by perpendicular lines. If the lines would extend, to make two intersecting lines, they would form four right angles. Perpendicular lines are written like this: . From its shape, you can already tell that it forms at least two right angles.
What is the difference between perpendicular and intersecting lines?
perpendicular crosses at a right angle, while intersecting lines don't
When two lines cross to form a square corner lines are called?
Mutually perpendicular.
Two lines are perpendicular if they are parallel and cross?
Parallel lines are never perpendicular. Perpendicular lines are co-planar and cross at right angles.
Draw two intersecting lines but not perpendicular?
draw two intersecting lines that are not perpendicular
What is Perpendicular and Parallel?

What makes two lines perpendicular?
Perpendicular lines are any two lines that intersect at a 90 degree angle.
What is perpendicicular lines?
Two lines are perpendicular or orthogonal if they meet at a 90 degree angle.For instance,|__|are two perpendicular lines.
How many perpendicular lines in a oblong?
Each of the four lines is perpendicular - to two of the other lines.
Lines that form right angles at the point of intersection are what?
When two lines intersect at a right angle, they are "perpendicular"
What is formed when two perpendicular lines cross?
When two perpendicular lines cross, a right angle is formed.
What type of angle is formed by perpendicular lines?
Right angles are formed by perpendicular lines. If the lines would extend, to make two intersecting lines, they would form four right angles. Perpendicular lines are written like this: . From its shape, you can already tell that it forms at least two right angles.
What is the difference between perpendicular and intersecting lines?
perpendicular crosses at a right angle, while intersecting lines don't
Can two intersecting diagonal lines be perpendicular?
Obviously it can.The type of lines that are perpendicular but do not intersect are known as 'Skew' lines. These can be better understood by using vectors in three-dimensional.I have reason to think that you yourself, do not know what your asking for and therefore I must tell you this. 90degrees= perpendicular.
Can two lines be perpendicular lines?
yes but they have to meet at a 90 degree angle to be perpendicular.
Two intersecting lines but not perpendicular?
Non-perpendicular intersecting lines. There is no special name.
