Image shows line WS and line KV as parallel. Line RT intersects line WS and line KV forming right angles.

Line WS is parallel to line KV. Line RT is perpendicular to line KV. Explain the relationship of line RT to line WS. Provide at least one reason to support your answer.

Make it super short and super duper simple and basic please

Since line WS is parallel to line KV and line RT is perpendicular to line KV, line RT must also be perpendicular to line WS.

Reason: Parallel lines maintain the same distance apart and a perpendicular line to one must also be perpendicular to the other.
