Never. If they are parallel then the original line and the two perpendiculars would be coplanar which, they are required not to be.
The line joining the feet of the perpendiculars drawn from all the points of the line onto a preselected plane.
In a Euclidean plane, only one.
A normal line is the name of the line drawn perpendicular to the surface where a light ray strikes.
[A Parallel line is a straight line, opposite to another, that do not intersect or meet.] Ie. Line 1 is Parallel to Line 2. ------------------------------------------------- <Line 1 ------------------------------------------------- <Line 2
The line that cuts a parallel line is called a TRANSVERSAL. When you have parallel lines and you want to show like corresponding, vertical, ect.... then the line that cut through the parallel lines is a TRANSVERSAL
Line a is parallel to line b, m, and . Find .
Do you mean "Why might a parallel line algorithm be needed?" or "What properties does a parallel line algorithm need to have?".
A vertical line has an undefined slope. For the line to be parallel to a vertical line, the slopes would have to be the same. Therefore, the line parallel to a vertical line also has an undefined slope.
draw line st parallel to line mn
I classify a parallel line as two line segments that will never intersect if the line kept going. They are perfectly straight and even.
The difference between a perpendicular line and a parallel line is that a perpendicular line crosses or joins, while a parallel line doesn't touch at all.
