Solution

The correct option is C

Suresh is incorrect, Ramesh is correct.


As shown in the figure, when two lines are perpendicular to each other, four different quadrants are formed. Now, in each quadrant, the angle made by the two lines is 90°. Therefore, the total number of right angles will be 4.
