Two points of parallel segments are writing with two lines like the following. (e.g.. )
For example if points AB are parallel to GI then you would write it like this (e.g.. ABGI)
First, lines and rays cannot be congruent because they do not have both end points defined. Not having an end point define means we cannot talk about their length so they can't be congruent. Line segments, however, can be congruent. Congruent line segments NEED NOT be parallel.Furthermore, if two line segments are parallel, that does not mean they are congruent since parallel line segments may not have the same length.Congruent line segments would be ones that are the same length.
no, if they are both in the same plane and IF EXTENDED INDEFINITELY would never intersect at any point then the segments are considered parallel.
When 2 line segments are parallel to each other. If the lines did keep on going they would never touch each other
No, because then it would become many line segments.
A parallelogram is a quadrilateral in which each of two sets of opposite sides consists of two parallel lines (or for math purists I should say, parallel line segments).
A polygon is any plane figure with a finite amount of straight line segments. Some examples of polygons without parallel sides would be a triangle, a star and a pentagon.
Not necessarily. In a scatter plot or regression they would not.
Given that an octogon has eight sides, then the simplest way would be to enscribe a circle. Divide it exactly in half, then divide it in half again, at right angles to your first line.You now have four quarters. Divide each quarter in half, and you will have eight segments. Connect the points of the segments and you will have an octogon.
Answer: Two lines that never touch or have any points in common are parallel. If there was a slight angle difference with one of the lines, they would eventually cross somewhere. Perfectly parallel lines will always remain parallel and will never cross each other. Answer: If they are also in the same plane, they are said to be parallel.
By definition, any lines/segments that are perpendicular to each other either do, or (in the case of non-intersecting segments) would, intersect each other at right angles. A right angle being a 90* angle. Therefore, perpendicular, intersecting line segments will form 4 90* angles.
Such a quadrangle cannot exist. The right angle must be formed by one of the parallel sides and one of the non-parallel sides. Then the angle formed at the other end of that non-parallel side would also be a right angle (the non-parallel side would be a transversal intercepting the two parallels). But then the quadrangle has two right angles, and not just one. No its Trapezoid
The locus of points at a given distance to a line would be a line parallel to the first line. Assuming that both lines are straight.
