Angularity is an orientation tolerance that controls the angular relationship between two planes or a plane and an axis. The relationship can not be zero or 90.
The parallelism tolerance zone is two parallel planes 0.4 apart and parallel to the surface plate (datum X).
At least one datum must be referenced

Parallelism is an orientation tolerance that controls a flat surface , a median plane, or center axis.
The tolerance zone is a cylinder with a 0.4 diameter parallel to cylindrical datum T.

Perpendicularity is an orientation tolerance that controls the relationship between two planes, a plane and an axis, or two axes.
Perpendicularity is being checked with the aid of an angle block and dial indicator.
