Proofs of the three-perpendiculars theorem

2.2k Views Asked by At

I have to prove this theorem in three different ways. I have already proved it geometricaly and using vectors, but I can not think of any other way.

Theorem: If PQ is perpendicular to a plane XY and if from Q, the foot of the perpendicular, a straight line QR is drawn perpendicular to any straight line ST in the plane, then PR is also perpendicular to ST.
