OK so what is this question asking?
- 00:19
Yeah -- line D... and the measurement of Angle 4... are total decoys.
- 00:23
All we need to recognize is that, because C is perpendicular to A...
- 00:28
...All of the angles located at the intersection of those two lines will be 90 degrees.
- 00:34
In fact, that little square thingy tells us the same thing... that we're dealing with right angles.
- 00:39
So our answer is C.
