Question

Write the names of the highlighted lines.

• A. A: Parallel lines, B: Perpendicular lines, C: Intersecting lines
• B. A: Parallel lines, B: Intersecting lines, C: Perpendicular lines
• C. A: Perpendicular lines, B: Intersecting lines, C: Parallel lines
• D. A: Intersecting lines, B: Perpendicular lines, C: Parallel lines

Answer 1

The correct option is B A: Parallel lines, B: Intersecting lines, C: Perpendicular lines

$\bullet$ In figure A, the lines are parallel because they don’t intersect each other.

$\bullet$ In figure B, the lines cross each other but don’t form an L shape, so these lines are intersecting lines.

$\bullet$ In figure C, the lines intersect each other and form an L shape, so these are perpendicular lines.

Hence, option B is correct.
