What a perpendicular?

Lines that intercept each other a 90 degrees are said to be perpendicular


How do you call the pairs of perpendicular lines?

Perpendicular lines intercept each other at right angles which is 90 degrees


How are perpendicular lines one special case of intersecting lines?

Because they intercept at 90 degrees


Are all Intersecting lines parallel?

Parallel lines cannot intersect in the Euclidean plane. Intersecting lines are not parallel.


How do parallel and perpendicular slopes compare or their y intercept?

There is no relationship between the slopes of parallel or perpendicular lines and their y-intercepts.


Which of the following shows perpendicular lines W. X. Y. Z.?

Lines W and Y are perpendicular because they meet at a right angle. Lines X and Z are perpendicular because they meet at a right angle.


Are two lines with the same y intercept are perpendicular?

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.


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 determine if they are parallel perpendicular or neither?

That depends on the specific situation. You may want to measure angles (perpendicular lines are at a right angle, i.e., 90°). If you have equations for line, write them in the slope-intercept form. Parallel lines have the same slope. If lines are perpendicular, the product of their slopes is -1.


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.


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.


What do right angles mean in maths?

right angles are perpendicular lines that intercept each other at right angles which is 90 degrees
