What does perpendicular mean mathematicaly?
Perpendicular is mostly used to describe Shapes and their properties. It means when two lines meet up at a 90 degrees right angle. It might be an X or a T when you look at it. Like the example shown below:------------------------------------lllllSo that isn't a good drawing, but it does show you the meaning of perpendicular!
At what angle do perpendicular lines meet?
90 degrees
What lines meet at one point?
Intersecting, perpendicular.
What diagonals are always perpendicular?
The diagonals of a square are always perpendicular.
Ways in dividing a square into 4 equal parts?
You could draw in the two diagonals (from corner to opposite corner). You could draw two perpendicular lines to develop four squares inside the existing square. You could draw three parallel lines to develop four equally-sized rectangles within the square.
What is parallel perpendicular lines look like?
As far as we know, two lines can be perpendicular, or they can be parallel, but they can't be both.
How do examples of perpendicular lines look?
These lines are perpendicular: _|
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.
Can you show me what a perpendicular lines look like?
They look like two intersecting lines that make four right angles. Like the two lines in this L.
What does perpendicular look like?
Perpendicular is when two lines cross and form a right angle, which I hope you know what that is.
Perpendicular lines look like?
They are straight lines that intersect each other at 90 degrees
What makes two lines perpendicular what do they look like?
Perpendicular lines are ones that make right angles when they meet. For instance the letters T H E and L are all made of perpendicular line segments.
What is an unperpendicular line?
A perpendicular line is two lines that look like a plus +. If they're not perpendicular, they don't cross with 90 degree angles.
How do a obtuse angle look?
Like __/ or \__. (in between a straight line and a right angle (perpendicular lines)
How does a perpendicular look?
Perpendicular lines are lines that cross one another at a 90° angle. They have slopes that are opposite reciprocals of one another. Perpendicular lines intersect each other.
What does perpenciular line look like?
Two lines are perpendicular when they cross at right angle like the corner of a piece of paper.
How are perpendicular lines different to intersecting lines?
Perpendicular lines have to intersect to make a right angle Like this: + Intersecting lines don't have to intersect to make a right angle Like this: X
