Solution

The correct option is D 4
A perpendicular is defined as a straight line that makes the right angle (90 degrees) with the other line.


In the above figure, the line m and line l intersect each other at right angles.
Hence we can see that, when two lines are perpendicular to each other, they form 4 right angles (90 degrees).
