If two lines intersect each other at right angles, that means that the measure of each angle between the two lines is 90o. Another way of stating this is to say that two lines are perpendicular.

How may right angles does a cube have?

Do you mean "two-dimensional right angles?" If so, then each side of a cube is a square and so has four right angles.


What are the properties of the rohombus?

If you mean a rhombus then some of its properties are:- It's a 4 equal sided quadrilateral shape It has 2 opposite equal acute angles and 2 opposite equal obtuse angles Its 4 interior angles add up to 360 degrees Its 2 diagonals intersect each other at right angles It will tessellate

Does to intersect each other mean also to bisect each other?

No. If two lines intersect they cross each other. To bisect each other, means that the lines not only intersect but that also that the point where the two line[ segment]s cross is the mid point of both of the line[ segment]s. Examples, consider: The diagonals of a kite ABCD with sides AB & AD equal (2 cm each), and BC & DC equal and twice the length of the other two sides (4 cm each). The diagonals AC and BD intersect each other; BD is bisected by AC but AC is NOT bisected by BD. The diagonals of a right angle trapezium ABCD with ∠DAB and ∠ADC right angles (so sides AB and DC are parallel) and with sides AB = 2 cm, CD = 14 cm and AD = 5 cm (side BC = 13 cm). The diagonals AC and BD intersect, but NEITHER bisects the other. The diagonals AC and BD of a square ABCD not only intersect each other, but they also do, in this case, bisect each other.

What are vertivle angles?

I think you mean vertical angles. Vertical angles are formed by two intersecting lines that make what looks like an X. Vertical angles are the two angles that are across from each other, either the top and bottom 2 angles or the left and right 2 angles. Vertical angles are also always congruent!
