Intersecting lines are those that meet each other at a certain point on the plane whereas perpendicular lines are those which meet each other at a 90° angle.Since in the given diagram the 2 lines never meet each other, options b & c are eliminated and since the lines also appear to be equidistant from each other, option d is also eliminated.

1. A Ray refers to that part of a line which has 1 end point and other end has no end i.e. it is infinitely increasing at one end.2. A line is a geometric object (collection) with infinitely increasing ends i.e. it has no end on both sides.3. Since the given figure is that of a closed object, none of its sides can have any infinite ends.

A path is not a point but a collection of points in a straight path. Hence, option d is eliminated.Also, a line segment and a ray are both parts of a line where a line segment has fixed or definite ends on both sides whereas a ray has one end fixed and the other end extends infinitely.Hence, options b & c are also eliminated.

When we fold the rectangle along its diagonals, we wouldn't get 2 equal parts as the adjacent sides in a rectangle are not equal.
