What does a perpendicular bisector look like?
A perpendicular bisector has a right angle or 90 degrees
What do perpendicular lines look like?
Perpendicular lines are two lines that intersect at a 90-degree angle, forming a right angle where they meet. In geometric terms, the slopes of perpendicular lines are negative reciprocals of each other. Visually, perpendicular lines appear to be at right angles to each other, creating a distinct "L" shape where they intersect.
What does a perpendicular line look like?
A perpendicular line is a straight line that intersects another straight line at right angles or 90 degrees on all four sides.
How can you tell when two lines are perpendicular?
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.
