geometry basics > constructing parallel and perpendicular lines
image long description
the diagram shows the final step of a construction. insert the symbol that makes the statement true.
(1 point)
$overleftrightarrow{ps} \square \overleftrightarrow{rq}$
check answer remaining attempts 3

Explanation:

Step1: Analyze the diagram

The diagram shows an angle (∠2) constructed such that it is a right angle (90°) with respect to the line \( \overleftrightarrow{RQ} \). So, the line \( \overleftrightarrow{PS} \) is perpendicular to \( \overleftrightarrow{RQ} \).

Step2: Recall the perpendicular symbol

The symbol for perpendicular lines is \( \perp \). So, \( \overleftrightarrow{PS} \perp \overleftrightarrow{RQ} \).

Answer:

\( \perp \)
