Answer:

1&2 are true

Step-by-step explanation:

if the two lines are equidistant from each other then they must be parallel

since the lines are perpendicular

they form only right angles

Perpendicular lines are lines that meet at 90 degrees. The true statements about lines m and n are:

  1. Lines m and n form four right angles.
  2. Lines m and n intersect at a single point

Given

Line 1 & Line 2

To determine the condition that proves their perpendicularity, we start by analyzing the options

(a) All four angles are right-angled

This condition is true because perpendicular lines meet at right-angled i.e. all angles at the point of intersection are right angles.

(b) One point of intersection

This condition is also true because two lines can only intersect at one point or no point.

(c) m and n are equidistant

This condition is false because lines that are equidistant have no points of intersection (i.e. the lines are parallel).

(d) Angles formed are acute and obtuse

As stated in (a), all 4 angles are right-angled. This means that option (4) is false.

Hence, (a) and (b) are true
