CR = DS

The answer is C.

They intersect the parallel lines at the same angle, and hence they are parallel as well.

Answer:

CR=DS

Explanation:

We are given AB || PQ. CR and DS are perpendicular to line AB.

So, CR and DS are two perpendicular line between two parallel line.

As we know distance between two parallel line is constant at all point

CR is distance of two parallel line AB || PQ

DS is also distance of same parallel line AB||PQ

Therefore, CR must be equal to DS.

Thus, CR=DS is true statement.
