Draw a line segment AB of 4 cm in length. Draw a line perpendicular to AB through A and B, respectively. Are these lines parallel?


We know that if two lines are parallel, then the angle between them will be 0° or 180°.



Here, XAB = 90°


And YBA = 90°


XAB + YBA = 90° + 90°


= 180°


So, the lines XA and YB are parallel.
