Geometry Section 3.6 Prove Theorems About Perpendicular Lines
2
Theorem If two lines intersect to form a linear pair of congruent angles, then the lines are perpendicular. 12
3
Theorem If two lines are perpendicular, then they intersect to form four right angles 12 34
4
Theorem If two sides of two adjacent acute angles are perpendicular, then the angles are complementary 1 2
5
Perpendicular Transversal Theorem If a transversal is perpendicular to one of two parallel lines, then it is perpendicular to the other
6
Lines Perpendicular to a Transversal Theorem In a plane, if two lines are perpendicular to the same line then they are parallel to each other mn
7
Distance from a point to a line The distance from a point to a line is the length of the perpendicular segment from the point to the line. This perpendicular segment is the shortest distance between the point and the line.
