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.

What is an antonym for skew lines?

Parallel Lines - Skew lines are lines that do not intersect and do not lie in the same plane. If two lines lie in the same plane they they must either intersect or they are parallel.

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.

If two lines do not intersect must they be parallel?

If the two lines lie in the same plane, and they do not intersect, then they are parallel. If they are not in the same plane, and do not intersect, then they are called skew lines.

What are lines in the same plane that are not parallel and do not intersect?

If they are not parallel and do not intersect then they would not be in the same plane (not possible), but they would be called skew lines.

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 non parallel lines intersect?

If the 2 lines lie in the same plane, and they are not parallel, then they will intersect at some point. If the 2 lines are skew lines, then they are not in the same plane, and they will not intersect (but they are Not Parallel)
