perpendicularLines a and b intersect but are not perpendicular. Line c is perpendicular to line a and line d is Perpendicular to line b. what are the possible relationships between line c and line d​

If A and B were parallel, the lines perpendicular to these would also be parallel or there could even be a line that would pass through both

If A and B were permedicular the lines perpendicular to these would also be.

If A and B are neither parallel nor perpendicular, the lines perpendicular to them are neither

So then, since A and B intersect they are not parallel and according to the statement they are not perpendicular, so their perpendicular lines C and D are neither parallel nor perpendicular.
