PARALLEL AND PERPENDICULAR LINESParallel lines can run side by side on forever but perpendicular lines make a 90 degree angle.
No. Parallel lines do not intersect; perpendicular lines intersect at 90 degrees
-- I can say that the equation of the line is [ x = a number ]. -- I can also say that the line is vertical on a graph. -- I can also say that the line is parallel to the y-axis. -- Also that it's perpendicular to the x-axis.
The straight line equation is y = mx + b. If they do not cross and have the same slope they are parallel; if they cross and the slope (m) of one of them is the negative inverse slope of the other (-1/m) they are perpendicular. Otherwise they are neither
Real life example of parallel lines are railroad tracks and rows in a garden. Also the lines on a basketball court are parallel
No, you need either two points, one point and a slope, one point and a y-intercept, or a y-intercept an a slope. You can also write the equation of a line with an equation of another line but you would have to know if it is parallel or perpendicular.

Perpendicular lines can not be parallel to each other but they can be to other lines.
A square and a rectangle have perpendicular and parallel lines. The two side lines extending upwards from the base line are perpendicular to the base line. The line extending from each of the side lines across the top is perpendicular to the side lines. The top line is also parallel to the base line, and the side lines are also parallel to each other.

Railroad tracks or the number 11 are parallel lines. A cross or a small t are perpendicular lines. Also the two ll's in the middle of parallel are parallel lines.

There are letters in the alphabet with both parallel and perpendicular lines. In alphabetical order, they are E, F, and H. If the joining point can be considered perpendicular and parallel, then B, D, P, and R also match the criterion.

If there are given two parallel line L1 and L2, and a third line L3 that is perpendicular to L1, then the line L3 must also be perpendicular to L2.

Parallel: E, F, H, I, M, N, O (in some fonts), U, Z. Perpendicular: E, F, G, H, L, T. Many more letters have perpendicular lines in serif fonts. Also, there are letters, such as D, in which the ends of the curved section are parallel to one another and are perpendicular to the vertical element.
