Best Answer

Skew lines never intersect. If two lines intersect, then

they are known as "intersecting lines", not skew lines.

Do lines that skew intersect?

No. Skew lines do not intersect


Are Lines that do not intersect are always skew lines?

They may also be parallel lines.


Do skew lines intersect?

SKEW LINES are neither parallel nor intersecting.


Are a line and a plane that do not intersect always sometimes or never skew?

A line and a plane that do not intersect are always skew. Skew refers to two or more lines or planes that are not parallel and do not intersect. Since a line and a plane are different-dimensional objects, they will never intersect and will always be skew.


What are skew lines?

skew lines are noncoplanar lines, which means they aren't parallel and they also don't intersect skew lines do not intersect and are not coplanar


Can two skew lines intersect in exactly one point?

always


Two noncoplanar liner that do not intersect?

They are skew line. Skew line are two lines that do not intersect but are not parallel.Another definition is skew lines are straight lines that are not in the same plane and do not intersect.Either way, skew lines are the answer to your question since they are noncoplanar and do not intersect.


Will the perpendicular bisectors of a right triangle always intersect?

yes, because perpendicular lines always intersect. all lines intersect unless they are parallel or on separate planes (skew)


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.


Are skew lines perpendicular?

No, skew lines are not perpendicular. Perpendicular lines intersect at an angle of ninety degrees, while skew lines never intersect (think in three dimensions or higher).


If two coplanar lines do not intersect then they must be what?

Skew. * * * * * FALSE. In fact, if they are skew, they must intersect. They have to be parallel for them not to intersect.


Do skew lines intersect if they are in the same plane?

No, skew lines cannot be in the same plane, since they do not have a point on common. Two lines intersect if they lie in a common plane, and by definition, these intersecting lines are not skew lines.
