What does an orange box in a corner indicate when using the MEASUREGEOM command's Quick Mode?

1. The lines are at a right angle

2. The lines are parallel

3. The lines are intersecting at an acute angle

4. The lines are not aligned

The correct answer is: The lines are at a right angle

The orange box in the corner when using the MEASUREGEOM command's Quick Mode indicates that the lines are at a right angle. This visual cue helps users quickly determine the relationship between two lines within the drawing environment. Recognizing right angles is crucial for maintaining proper geometrical relationships in designs, as many architectural and engineering plans rely on precision and adherence to standard angles. In this context, when the system identifies that the two lines form a 90-degree angle, it provides the orange box feedback, confirming that this angle relationship is present. This feature is particularly useful for users who need to verify orthogonal alignments during drafting, ensuring that designs meet specific criteria and standards.
