Answer:
:
Each Option: 1 Mark
Given that:
Line l is perpendicular to line m.
a) We can clearly see from the above diagram that CE = 5-3= 2 units
Also, EG = 7-5 = 2 units
CE = EG = 2 units
b)As we have seen above CE = EG
So, E is the mid-point of line CG.
Line PE bisects CG.
c) We can see from the above figure that
BE = 5-2 = 5 units
HE = 8-5 = 3 units
E is the mid-point of the line BH.
Also given that line m is perpendicular to the line l.
PE is the perpendicular bisector of the line segment BH.
Also, we have seen above that PE is also the perpendicular bisector of line segment CG.
The required line segments are BH and CG.
