Can you arrange lines in a plane so there both parallel and intersecting?

no. its impossible. Parallel mean lines that never touch. unless you have more than two lines. than you can make two parallel and or more intersecting them both.


Can two lines exist that are not intersecting or parallel?

Yes, they can be two existing lines (not intersecting) and it can be parallel.


Are two intersecting lines are parallel?

No, they aren't, because they are intersecting (parallel lines never intersect).


Two lines in intersecting planes are skew.?

Two lines in two intersecting planes can be parallel, intersecting, or skew.


Can two intersecting lines be parallel?

no. parallel lines never touch.


Can two lines be both non intersecting and non parallel?

no, if two lines are not parallel then the will eventually have to intersect.Alternate perspective:Yes, if two lines are non-parallel, they need not intersect in three dimensional space.


Can 2 non intersecting lines be parallel in 2 D?

In 2D geometry, that is the definition of parallel lines. Two non-intersecting lines are indeed parallel.


When are two lines non intersecting?

parallel :D


Can two line segments be both intersecting and parallel?

Not in Euclidean geometry, but in other geometries such lines are possible.


Are two lines that do not intersect skew?

Two lines that are not parallel and do not intersect are skew. If the non-intersecting lines are in the same plane then they 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 the same two lines be perpendicularparalleland intersecting?

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