Answer:
have watched, have always enjoyed watching, will have helped me
Explanation:
Answers;
1) Perfect tense verb (This tense is expressed by adding one of the auxiliary verbs — have, has, or had — to the past tense form of the main verb.)
2) I have watched, have enjoyed watching, would have helped. (we use the present / past / future form of the verb to have and the past participle of the main verb)
3) We form the present-perfect tense by using the present tense of have (has or have) and adding the past participle of the main verb.
