Answer:

Given: PQ and RS intersect to form four right angles.

Option C is correct.i.e., PQ ⊥ RS

Because Perpendicular means a line intersecting another at right angles and making 4 right angles between them. Here, also PQ intersect with RS at right angles and makes 4 right angle

Given that PQ and RS intersect to form four right angles, then they form an angle of 90 degrees, this implies that:
if the meet at point O,
then;
∠POR=∠POS=∠QOS=∠ROQ=90°
Therefore the correct statement is:
PQ is perpendicular to RS
that is to mean:
PQ⊥RS
The answer is C.
