Prove that, if a line is perpendicular to one of the two parallel lines, then it is perpendicular to the other line also.Given: line AB || line CD and line EF intersects them at P and Q respectively.line EF ⊥ line ABTo prove: line EF ⊥ line CD |

Answer» Proof: line EF ⊥ line AB[Given] ∴ ∠APR = 90° ….(i) line AB || line CD and line EF is their transversal. ∴ ∠EPB ≅ ∠PQD …..(ii) [Corresponding angles] ∴ ∠PQD = 90° [From (i) and (ii)] ∴ line EF ⊥ line CD |
