When documenting your network infrastructure, you are obtaining both hardware data to document your infrastructure's physical structure and software data to document the existence and configuration of the protocols in use on your network.
1. perpendicular-a straight line at right angles to another line. straight line-a line traced by a point traveling in a constant direction; a line of zero curvature; the shortest distance between two points is a straight line.
In case of a two dimensional plane, two intersecting lines are said to be perpendicular lines if they intersect at right angles. In the figure, the lines $\overleftrightarrow{AB}$ and $\overleftrightarrow{CD}$ are perpendicular to each other intersecting at the point P. We can write.ase 3: Two lines are parallel and there is no intersection. Case 4: The two lines are not parallel, but there is no intersection. Such lines are called skew lines. If P(x, y, Z) is the intersecting point of the two line segments, it will be on both the line segments.
