GEOMETRY PERPENDICULAR

by rbansal » Wed Apr 27, 2011 6:02 pm
Hello I was just reading the Kaplan GMAT Premier 2011, on page 293 it states that : If line 1 is perpendicular to line 2, and line one is perpendiculare to line three , then line 1 is parallel to line 3. Do you think its a typo? is it supposed to be then line 2 is parallel to line 3?

Thank you in Advance,

RB

line 2||line 3; parallel lines cannot be perpendicular.
