Solution Steps

00:03 What do all these drawings have in common?
00:06 Perpendicular lines meet to form a right angle at their intersection.
00:11 In this example, the lines create a right angle, so they are perpendicular.
00:17 And in this one, they are also perpendicular.
00:20 These lines are perpendicular too.
00:23 Again, we see perpendicular lines here.
00:27 All lines are perpendicular to each other. That's the answer to our question!

Step-by-Step Solution

Upon observation we can see that all the lines form a right angle of 90 degrees with each other.

Typically lines that form a right angle of 90 degrees with each other are perpendicular and vertical lines.

Therefore, the correct answer is a.

Answer

All the figures are perpendicular
