Answer:

The make complementary 90º angles.

Explanation:

When two line segments are perpendicular one of them divides the other one into two complementary 90º degrees angles, in that way we have to remember that a straight line is an angle of 180º degrees, when another angle divides the line into two 90º degrees they are perpendicular.
