basically what does the upsidedownn t mean. I think it has something to do with greater than or less that but i was only guessing.

The upside down T means Perpendicular. That means that you have two right angles back to back.
In other words, a line cutting another line at a perfect 90 degree angle.

Modern Satanism walks the narrow line between bona fide religion and juvenile attention-seeking farce; like the Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster, but with a lot more chains, hair dye and self-mutilation. Generally intended as a giant middle-finger to Christianity, Satanists deliberately adorn themselves with symbols that they think will inspire random people to try to give them a stern talking to. One of the most popular Satanist symbols is the upside down cross, the reasoning behind which seems obvious enough. With the possible exception of that pentagram thing with the goat's head inside it, the inverted cross is the most immediately recognizable symbol of defiance against Christianity. It's certainly the easiest to tattoo onto your own face. If those Satanists had paid attention in Sunday school, they would probably realize that the inverted cross is actually the personal trademark of Saint Peter, the first Pope, and one of the most revered figures in Catholic lore. When Peter was martyred by crucifixion he was said to have requested to be crucified upside down because he didn't feel worthy of dying the same way as Jesus. As a result, many dyed-in-the-wool Catholics actually consider the inverted cross to be a more acceptable thing to attach to your tacky jewelry than a regular right-way-up one. By wearing an upside-down cross, Satanists are unwittingly showing humility and unworthiness before Christ. That makes about as much sense as a neo-Nazi sticking it to the Jews by swearing off pork for life. Take that!

In geometry what does the symbol "T" but upside down mean?

It only means that the line before the sign inverted T is perpendicular to the line after the said sign. In effect, the prior line forms two 90 degree angle, no more no less, to that of the latter line.

Upside Down T

Hey there!
The symbol simply means perpendicular. It is commonly used for segments, lines, rays, angles, planes etc.
If two lines are perpendicular to each other, then they form right angles, or angles which measure 90 degrees.
Hope it helps!

It means perpendicular. Perpendicular lines are lines that intersect (meet) at right angles ( angles that measure 90 degrees.)

It means PERPENDICULAR.... the definition of perpendicular is two lines intersecting to form a right angle... Since an upside down T is two lines intersecting and forms a right angle... it makes since the simple would mean perpendicular

It means perpendicular - one line at a right angle to another line or plane.
