Based on the description provided about lines u and t, the correct responses relating to the definition of the figure are:
- **a line that intersects another line at a 90-degree angle**: This accurately describes the relationship between lines u and t, as they intersect at a right angle.
- **a straight figure that has no thickness and extends infinitely in two opposite directions**: This description fits the definition of a line itself.
The other options provided, particularly regarding parallel lines and segments of a circumference, do not apply to the lines described. Thus, the correct responses are the second and third definitions.
