What do you call a place where two places intersect?
no
How can you determine that two walls of a building are parallel?
Measure the distance at different places. If the walls are parallel, then the distance will be the same.
Parallel lines are equidistant and will never meet?
I understand your question to be, "Is it true that parallel lines are everywhere equidistant and never intersect?" In what follows, I assume we're talking about a two-dimensional plane. By definition, two lines that are parallel (in the same plane) never intersect. In Euclidean (AKA Parabolic or simply E) Geometry, and also in Hyperbolic (AKA simply L) Geometry, parallel lines exist. In Elliptical (AKA R) Geometry, all lines eventually intersect so parallel lines do not exist. Now, are two parallel lines (in the same plane) everywhere equidistant? If so, that means that it is possible, at any point on one of the lines, to construct a perpendicular that will meet the other line in a perpendicular, and that the length of the segments constructed will be always the same. In Euclidean Geometry, two parallel lines (in a plane) are indeed everywhere equidistant. To prove it requires the converse of the Alternate Interior Angles theorem (AIA), which says that if two parallel lines are cut by a transversal, the alternate interior angles will be congruent. Note that this is the CONVERSE of AIA, not AIA. Some people get this mixed up. In Hyperbolic Geometry, two lines can be parallel, but be further apart some places than others. I know that sounds rather odd, if you're not used to it. Here's an image that might help: imagine that your plane is a thin sheet of rubber, and for some reason is being stretched. The further you go from your starting point, the more it stretches, and it's always stretching away from you. This means that your parallel lines will keep getting further and further apart.
How do you find tangent parallel to line?
"tangent" meaning is a line or plane which touches a given curve or solid at a single point.Therefore, by definition there is no tangent to a line.if it were parallel it would not touch.if it were coincident it would touch in all places.
The branch of mathematical that uses letters called variable in places of numerals?
That is called algebra.

Where is the Indian ocean located?
Indian Ocean is bounded by many places
How would you know if lines a perpendicular or parallel?
perpendicular lines intersect each other at 90 degrees whereas parallel lines never intersect each other and remain equal distance apart from each other. Obviously the way to test if two lines are parallel is to measure their distance from each other at at least two points (the farther apart the better) to confirm that they remain equal distance apart, but to test if lines are perpendicular, with a compass with the point at the point where the two lines intersect, draw an arc (or three parts of an arc) that intersects one of the lines in two places and the other line in one place. If the distances between the lines at the points where they are intersected by the arc are equal, the lines are perpendicular.
Why cant a system of linear equations cannot have exactly two solutions?
Because linear lines can't intersect in two seperate places. They either intersect at one specific coordinate, or the lines are on top of each other and they intersect at every point.

What is the difference between simultaneous and parallel events?
Parallel events are similar events. Simultaneous events are events that occur at the same time. Both simultaneous and parallel events occur at different places.
Is the x-intercepts the same thing as zeros?
Yes, the places where the graph of a polynomial intercepts the x-axis are zeros. The value of y at those places must be 0 for the polynomial to intersect the x axis.

What are two stores where one might purchase a USB to parallel port adapter?
There are several places where someone could purchase a USB to parallel port adapter. Stores such as Office Depot and Staples both sell the USB to parallel port adapters.
Why is more than 2 seismic stations needed to measure an earthquake?
Two stations each give out a circle. Those circles intersect at two places. When a third station is added, there are three circles. These three circles only intersect together at one place. That's where the precise earthquake location is.
