Determine whether the given statement is still true if the lines are not coplanar.

Explanation of Solution
Given:
Perpendicular Transversal Converse Theorem:
In a plane , if two lines are perpendicular to the same line , then they are parallel.
Calculation :
Consider the diagram :
Given :
R and S are different planes (not necessarily parallel) and l and m are lines in planes R and S respectively such that :
To Prove :
Clearly , since the two lines are perpendicular to the same line , they are parallel .
Hence the given statement holds even if the lines are not coplanar.

- Can someone help me with this please?arrow_forwardMariela is in her classroom and looking out of a window at a tree, which is 20 feet away. Mariela’s line of sight to the top of the tree creates a 42° angle of elevation, and her line of sight to the base of the tree creates a 31° angle of depression. What is the height of the tree, rounded to the nearest foot? Be sure to show your work to explain how you got your answer.arrow_forward1arrow_forward
