Answer:

The statement is true

The lines are perpendicular

Explanation:

we have


x=4 ----> equation A

The equation A represent a vertical line (is parallel to the y-axis)

The slope is undefined


y=5 ----> equation B

The equation B represent a horizontal line (is parallel to the x-axis)

The slope is equal to zero

Remember that

The y-axis and the x-axis are perpendicular lines

so

Line A and line B are perpendicular lines too

therefore

The statement is true
