Using the information given, name the right angles in each part of Fig. 2.40:
(a) BA ⊥BD
(b) RT ⊥ST
(c) AC ⊥BD
(d) RS ⊥RW
(e) AC ⊥BD
(f) AE ⊥CE
(g) AC ⊥CD
(h) OP ⊥AB
Fig. 2.40
A right angle is an angle of measure 90°. It is formed by two perpendicular lines.
(a) ∠ ABD because BA ⊥ BD
(b) ∠ RTS because RT ⊥ ST
(c) ∠ ACD and ∠ ACB because AC ⊥ BD
(d) ∠ RTW and ∠ RTS because RT ⊥ SW
(e) ∠ AED, ∠ AEB, ∠ BEC and ∠ DEC because AC ⊥ BD and E is their point of intersection.
(f) ∠ AEC because AE ⊥ CE
(g) ∠ ACD because AC ⊥ CD
(h) ∠ AKO, ∠ AKP, ∠ BKO and ∠ BKP because OP ⊥ AB and K is their point of intersection.
