To prove lines are parallel, you need a third line. We at Shmoop (and the rest of the world) call it a transversal.
A sequel to the 1989 classic Segments, Lines, and Videotape, this video will change the way you think about lines, segments, and rays. Unless yo...

OK so what is this question asking?
- 00:19
Yeah -- line D... and the measurement of Angle 4... are total decoys.
- 00:23
All we need to recognize is that, because C is perpendicular to A...
- 00:28
...All of the angles located at the intersection of those two lines will be 90 degrees.
- 00:34
In fact, that little square thingy tells us the same thing... that we're dealing with right angles.
- 00:39
So our answer is C.
