The correct Answer is:
To solve the question "Two lines are said to be perpendicular if the angle between them is _____", we follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understand the Definition of Perpendicular Lines**: - Perpendicular lines are defined as two lines that intersect at a right angle. 2. **Identify the Right Angle**: - A right angle is an angle that measures exactly 90 degrees. 3. **Visualize Perpendicular Lines**: - Draw two lines that cross each other, forming an "L" shape. The angle formed at the intersection is the right angle. 4. **Measure the Angle**: - When the two lines intersect, the angle between them is measured. If the angle is 90 degrees, then the lines are perpendicular. 5. **Conclusion**: - Therefore, we can conclude that two lines are said to be perpendicular if the angle between them is 90 degrees. ### Final Answer: Two lines are said to be perpendicular if the angle between them is **90 degrees**. ---
