✪ Question ✪
Let AB be perpendicular to line segment PQ. let AB and PQ intersect in the point X. What is the measure of ∠AXQ ?
✪ Given ✪
- AB is perpendicular to line segment PQ.
- AB and PQ intersect in the point X.
✪ To find ✪
The measure of ∠AQX.
✪ Solution ✪
We know that two perpendicular lines intersect each other at right angles, that means they intersect at 90°.
In the figure, AB is perpendicular to PQ and AB intersects PQ at X.
All the angles formed by the intersection (i.e., ∠AXP, ∠AXQ, ∠BXP and ∠BXQ) are right angles and measure 90°.
So, ∠AXQ = 90°
✪ Hence ✪
∠AXQ = 90°
✪ Therefore ✪
The measure of ∠AXQ is 90°.
