Draw a line segment AB of length 5 cm. At A
and B, construct lines perpendicular to AB.
Also, draw the perpendicular bisector of AB.
Are these three lines parallel to each other?
Justify your answer.

Answer:
Here the length of AB = 5cm
DA is perpendicular to AB.
EB is perpendicular to AB.
Two lines perpendicular to same line are parallel to each other.
Also \angle1 =\angle 3 = 90^{o}
So \angle1 + \angle3 = 180^{o}
If the sum of co interior angles = 180°, the lines are parallel.
Hence AD || BE
Now we construct the perpendicular bisector of AB which intersects AB at C
Again
angle1= \angle2 = 90^{o}
So
angle1 + \angle2 = 180^{o}
We know If the sum of co interior angles = 180°, the lines are parallel.
Hence AD || CF
Now BE ||AD || CF
Hence all the three lines are parallel to each other.
