  1. It is impossible. For a vertex to have perpindicular lines, the angle at that vertex is 90°. A triangle can only have 1 90° angle, because all angles have to add up to 180°.

    If a triangle had 2 90° angles, then the third angle would have to be 0° which isn't possible.

    So the answer is you cannot draw a triangle that has perpendicular lines at every vertex.
