Geometry question, please help! Suppose a line intersecting two planes A and B forms a right angle at exactly one point in each plane. What must be true about planes A and B? (Hint: Draw a picture.)

OpenStudy (iwillrektyou):

I have tried to understand and draw this out, but can't seem to understand it.

OpenStudy (loser66):

line m \(\perp\) plane A at O, ok? |dw:1443581920597:dw|

OpenStudy (iwillrektyou):

Ok, I think I understand this part.

OpenStudy (loser66):

Now, if m perpendicular to another plane, B, imagine how B is?

OpenStudy (iwillrektyou):

B is parallel to A?

OpenStudy (loser66):

No, I misread, they are parallel. That is it.

OpenStudy (iwillrektyou):

Oh alright, thank you so much! I couldn't understand without you showing me. Thanks for being patient with me as well!
