Suresh and Ramesh saw two perpendicular lines, and made the following statements:
Suresh: If two lines are perpendicular then the maximum number of right angles formed between them is 2.
Ramesh: If two lines are perpendicular then the maximum number of right angles formed between them is 4.
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.
