PROBLEM
False. Perpendicular lines intersect at one point.
STEP 1
Assumptions1. The lines are in a two-dimensional plane.
. Perpendicular lines are defined as two lines that intersect at a right angle (90 degrees).
STEP 2
By definition, two lines in a two-dimensional plane intersect at a single point, if they intersect at all.
STEP 3
Therefore, perpendicular lines, being a subset of all lines, also intersect at a single point.
SOLUTION
So, the statement "Perpendicular lines intersect in two points" is false.
The correct statement would be "Perpendicular lines intersect in one point".
