Question
If two straight lines are perpendicular to the same line, prove that they are parallel to each other.
✓
Answer
Given m perpendicular $t$ and $l$ perpendicular to t. $\angle{1}=\angle{2}=90^\circ$
Since, $I$ and $m$ are two lines and it is transversal and the corresponding angles are equal $L \| M$
Hence proved.
