How many perpendicular edges are there in a triangular prism?

There are twp perpendicular edges in a triangular prism. See if you draw a triangle you'll have two angles or edges that are the same length. That is if you draw a standard triangle.

How many circles can pass through two given points?

It takes 3 non collinear points to define one specific circle. With only two points an infinite number of circles can be drawn. Proof: Given two points A, B draw the line between them. Then find the perpendicular bisector of the line AB. Any point on the perpendicular bisector is equidistant from the two original points, A and B. A circle with center C and radius AC will then pass through points A and B. There are infinite point C's on the perpendicular bisector so there are infinite circles. Given three points A, B and D you can find the perpendicular bisector for line segements AB and then the perpendicular bisector fof line segment BC. The two perpedicular bisectors will not be parallel because the points A, B and D are non collinear. This means the two perpeniducar bisectors will intercept at only one point C(like any two intercepting lines). This point C is equidistant from points A, B, and D. A circle with center C and radius AC will then pass through all three of the points. Since there is only one point C that lies on both perpendicular bisectors, there is only one circle possible.

A right angle is mearsured in how many degrees?

A Right Triangle is a triangle that has one corner with a 90-degree angle. So a Right Angle is an angle of 90 Degrees or also known as Perpendicular angle.
