Are the metal rails that make up train an example of parallel line intersecting lines or perpendicular lines?

Railway lines are parallel


How are perpendicular lines similar to intersecting lineshow are they different?

The question is baffling. They're not different. Perpendicular lines must be intersecting lines.The only lines that are not intersecting lines are parallel lines. If two lines arenot parallel, then they must intersect, and they can be perpendicular or not.


Can two lines be parellel perpendicular and intersecting at the same time?

No. If the lines are parallel they will never meet or intersect at any point. If the lines are perpendicular they do intersect, but perpendicular lines are a special case of intersecting lines. Perpendicular lines are exactly 90 degrees from each other. Intersecting lines do not haveto be perpendicular... but perpendicular lines are always intersecting.


Are lines of latitude perpendicular parallel or intersecting?

Lines of latitude are horizontal and run parallel to the poles


What do geometric lines mean?

They could be: parallel lines, perpendicular lines or intersecting lines


What is a line intersecting a pair of parallel lines?

perpendicular line


How do you label intersecting lines?

lines that intersect= perpendicular lineslines that do not intersect= parallel


How are perpendicular lines different from a intersecting lines?

They are not. The perpendicular bisectors of a triangle, for example, intersect at the orthocentre of the triangle. So perpendicular lines can be intersecting and conversely.


Are the metal rails that make up train tracks an example of parallel lines intersecting lines or perpendicular lines?

On successful railways it has been found that parallel works the best.

Can the same two lines be perpendicularparalleland intersecting?

No, because although perpendicular and intersecting lines do touch, parallel lines never meet.


Can the same two lines be parallel perpendicular and intersecting at the same time?

No.
