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:

So that isn't a good drawing, but it does show you the meaning of perpendicular!
What else can I help you with?
What diagonals are always perpendicular?
The diagonals of a square are always perpendicular.
Does a parallelogram have perpendicular diagonals?
No, not necessarily. It would have to also be a square or a kite in order to have perpendicular diagonals.
How can you use perpendicular and angle bisectors to form a 45 degree angle?
You draw a perpendicular at the end of a line segment. You then bisect the right angle formed between the original line and the perpendicular. The resulting angle will be 45 degrees.
At what angle do perpendicular lines meet?
90 degrees
What lines meet at one point?
Intersecting, perpendicular.
What is bigger a -9 or a-2 mathematicaly speaking?
-7
In math what does perpendicular mean?
Perpendicular means that two lines intersect like an X but its just perpendicular
What does perpendicular mean mathematically?
two lines that intersect at 90 degrees are perpendicular ex +
What does the term perpendicular lines mean?
Perpendicular lines are two lines that intersect to form four right angles.
What is the slope of perpendicular line y-13x?
If you mean y = -13x then the slope of the line perpendicular to it is 1/13
Is a hexagon perpendicular?
It has no right angles, so if that is what you mean, no, it is not.
What does an upside-down T mean?
It is the symbol for 'perpendicular'.
What does the math term perpendicular mean?
In geometric terms, one line is said to be perpendicular to another when their angle of intersection is 90°
What is the slope of the line that is perpendicular to y - 4x 3?
If you mean: y = -4x+3 then the perpendicular slope is 1/4
What does normal ray mean?
This usually refers to a light ray that hits a surface at 90 degrees, or perpendicular. In physical science the word "normal" is often used to mean perpendicular.
What does perpendicular sides mean?
The sides perpendicular to each other are at right angles (90 degrees, or square) to each other. An example of a figure with two pair of perpendicular sides is the rectangle.
A transverse line. Does transverse mean the same thing as perpendicular?
no
