Knowing that they have the same y-intercept, and knowing nothing else,

the only thing you can say about the two lines is that they have the same

y-intercept. That fact doesn't tell you anything else about them.

Are two lines with the same slope and different y-intercept perpendiculars?

No because two lines with the same slope but with different y intercepts are parallel lines. Perpendicular lines meet each other at right angles.


How wold you classify two linear equations have the same y-intercept and different slopes?

Two linear equations (or lines) with the same y-intercept and different slopes are intersecting lines. They intersect at the y-intercept. If the slopes are negative reciprocals (ex: one slope is 3 and one slope it -1/3) then they are perpendicular lines.


Do perpendicular lines have the same y-intercept?

no, a perpindicular is two lines with one interseption and where the lines meet they create 4 90 degree angles the lines create a t shepe.


What happens when two lines intersept?

When two lines intercept equal opposite vertical angles are formed and if the lines are perpendicular then right angles are formed


How do you graph parallel and perpendicular lines?

If you want to graph parallel lines, they need to have the same slope (Ex. 2x+2 and 2x+3)- parallel lines cannot have the same y-intercept because the two line would be the same. Perpendicular lines slopes need have to be opposite reciprocals (Ex. -2x+4 and +1/2x+3)- perpendicular lines can have the same y-intercepts, it doesn't make a difference.


Are any two pairs of perpendicular lines coplanar?

Two lines that are perpendicular to the same plane are coplanar. This means that they lay on the same plane.


If two lines are perpendicular do the have the same slope?

No but if the two lines are parallel then they will have the same slope.


Can parallel lines have the same intercept value?

Unless they are the exact same lines, no. Parallel lines do not touch. If two lines have the same intercept value, they share a point, and therefore touch.


Two lines perpendicular to the same line are perpendicular to each other true or false?

TRUE:: The first two lines lie in the same plain, but are perpendicular to each other. The third line passes through the plane of the first two lines so it is also perpendicular. Think 3-dimension. !!!!!


Is two distinct lines with same x intercept parallel?

No. In order to be parallel, two lines would have to have the same slope, and different intercepts.Why? Two lines with different slopes, but the same intercepts would result in two intersecting lines. Two lines with the same slope, and the same intercept would result in the same line. Two lines with the same slope, and different intercepts would be parallel.


What are two lines that are perpendicular to the same line?

parallel


In a plane if two lines are perpendicular to the same line then they are parallel to each other?

Yes they are. It's a postulate: In a plane two lines perpendicular to the same line are parallel.
