Through point R on the line

McDougal Littell Jurgensen Geometry: Student Edition Geometry, Chapter 3.3, Problem 18CE , additional homework tip  1in space infinite number of lines likeMcDougal Littell Jurgensen Geometry: Student Edition Geometry, Chapter 3.3, Problem 18CE , additional homework tip  2can be drawn perpendicular to McDougal Littell Jurgensen Geometry: Student Edition Geometry, Chapter 3.3, Problem 18CE , additional homework tip  3

Explanation of Solution

Given information:

The lines drawn through point R in space perpendicular to side

McDougal Littell Jurgensen Geometry: Student Edition Geometry, Chapter 3.3, Problem 18CE , additional homework tip  4

shown in Figure-1.

Theorem used:

In a plane, through a point outside a line, there is exactly one line perpendicular to the given line.

But in a space, through a point outside a line, there is exactly one line perpendicular to the given line.

McDougal Littell Jurgensen Geometry: Student Edition Geometry, Chapter 3.3, Problem 18CE , additional homework tip  5

According to the theorem stated above, through the point R on the line

McDougal Littell Jurgensen Geometry: Student Edition Geometry, Chapter 3.3, Problem 18CE , additional homework tip  6infinite number of lines likeMcDougal Littell Jurgensen Geometry: Student Edition Geometry, Chapter 3.3, Problem 18CE , additional homework tip  7can be drawn perpendicular to McDougal Littell Jurgensen Geometry: Student Edition Geometry, Chapter 3.3, Problem 18CE , additional homework tip  8

The theorem that justify the answer is stated as:

In a plane, through a point outside a line, there is exactly one line perpendicular to the given line.

Because, there are infinite number of planes containingMcDougal Littell Jurgensen Geometry: Student Edition Geometry, Chapter 3.3, Problem 18CE , additional homework tip  9

Conclusion:

Through point R on the line
