Yes, in plane geometry parallel lines continue forever. However, in polar geometry (3 dimensions, as in Earth longitudinal lines), parallel lines eventually intersect at the poles of the sphere,

Do parallel lines go on forever?
No, But 1 Dimensional Does. The lines may or may not go on forever but that has no effect on whether or not a parallel line will cross.
Parallel line segments are 2 line segments that are parallel. They never touch and they do not go on forever. Parallel lines do go on forever because lines go on forever. I think I'm right. Am I?
Yes, you are right. A line segment eventually ends. In fact, a segment has two endpoints. But parallel lines go on forever; they have no endpoints.Example: (arrows indicating they go on forever)_____________________ (these are parallel line segments)
Why do two non-parallel lines have to intersect?
The lines have to intersect because lines go on forever and if then are not parallel then they will collide. Even if they are not parallel by one degree they will still intersect.
If two lines are perpendicular they are also parallel?
PARALLEL AND PERPENDICULAR LINESParallel lines can run side by side on forever but perpendicular lines make a 90 degree angle.
What is the math definition of parallel lines?
2 straight lines going on forever in 2 directions ''ll''
Are two same lines parallel?
yes two lines that are the same line are parallel because they continue forever and do not intercept.

What is the definition of a parallel line?
Parallel lines are at least two lines that never cross and run forever.
What if the lines weren't parallel?
If two lines go on forever without touching but are not parallel, they are skew, lines that do not lie in the same plane.
Why do two non-parallel lines have to intersect?
The lines have to intersect because lines go on forever and if then are not parallel then they will collide. Even if they are not parallel by one degree they will still intersect.
Can two lines be parallel?
yes, even if they go on forever they can be.
If two lines are perpendicular they are also parallel?
PARALLEL AND PERPENDICULAR LINESParallel lines can run side by side on forever but perpendicular lines make a 90 degree angle.
Do parallel line intersect?
In Euclidean geometry, parallel lines never intersect. They go this way forever and never intersect but watch this typing. _______________ _______________ In non-Euclidean geometry, they intersect when the faces are uneven.

If there are 6 horizontal parallel and 7 vertical parallel lines then how many parallelograms we can get?
Infinite; you could go into the decimal forever.
Do lines have endpoints and why?
No, lines do not have endpoints, because they continue on forever in two directions, and never stop at an endpoint.
