Answer:

Lines stay parallel or overlap

Explanation:

AB and CD are parallel lines

Rotation around a point 90 degrees clockwise will make these lines perpendicular to their initial position but AB and CD will still be parallel to each other

They will overlap if the distance between them and point E is equal

Their initial slope is same and equal to m

Their final slope will be -1/m as a result of 90 degrees rotation
