When two lines are perpendicular to each other, the angle is said to be _______ angle.

A perpendicular is drawn using

When a perpendicular is drawn to a given line, in what ratio is the line divided into?

The steps to construct a line perpendicular to $XY$ and passing through $P$ is given in random order :
$1.$ Move the set square along XY so the other short side touches Point P.
$2.$ Use the edge of the set square to draw a line through Point P.
$3.$ Draw a line $XY$ and mark point $P$.
$4.$ Place one short side of the set square on the line XY.
Which of the following will be the fourth step :

Which of the following will be the second step :

To construct a perpendicular to a line ($L$) from a point ($P$) outside the line, steps are given in jumbled form.Identify the first step from the following.
1) Draw line $PQ$.
2)Draw a line $L$ and consider point $P$ outside the line.
3)Take $P$ as a center, draw $2$ arcs on line $L$ and name it as points $A$ and $B$ respectively.
4)Taking $A$ and $B$ as a center one by one and keeping the same distance in compass, draw the arcs on other side of the plane.The point where these arcs intersect name that point as $Q$.

When a perpendicular is drawn to a given line and it also bisects it, then the perpendicular divides the line into
