Is it possible to construct a line that is parallel to any given line and that passes through a point that is not on the given line?

Yes. That's always possible, but there's only one of them.

What line passes through 2 parallel lines?
Any line that is not parallel to the given lines. The transversal that contains the shortest distance between the two parallel lines, is perpendicular to them.
What is a line parallel to y-x - 3 and passes through -13?
If you mean: y = -x-3 passing through point of (-1, 3) Then the equation of the parallel line is: y =-x+2
What is produced when you slice a cone with a plane that passes through only the nappe of the cone and is not parallel to the base?
This is called an ellipse.
What is meant by alternate Interior angles?
Alternate interior angles are equal on a transversal that passes through parallel lines.
What is the equation of the line that is parallel to y-65x-4 and passes through the point (-1-1)?
If you mean y = -65x-4 then the parallel equation is y = -65x-66
Is the equator parallel or meridian?
The equator is a parallel that passes through more than 30 countries.
What 45th parallel passes through what states?
the states that the 45th parallel passes through are Europe, Asia, pacific ocean, North America Atlantic ocean, the equator, and the north Pole
Is it true that if two lines are crossed by a transversal the two lines are parallel?
A transversal is simply any line that passes through two or more coplanar lines each at different points. So picture, if you will, two lines that are clearly not parallel. I can easily construct a transversal that passes through them. HOWEVER, if two parallel lines are intersected by a transversal, then the corresponding angles are congruent. This is called the transversal postulate. If the corresponding angles are congruent, than the lines are parallel. This is the converse of the first postulate. So, the answer to your question is NO, unless the corresponding angles are congruent.
Find the slope of the line that passes through these points 3 6 and 3 5?
It's not possible because the given points would be a vertical line parallel to the y axis
How do you answer the equation in point slope of the line which passes through -2 -3 and is parallel to 3x plus 2y 10 is?
The equation in point slope of the line which passes through -2 -3 and is parallel to 3x plus 2y 10 is y=-1.5x.
What line passes through 2 parallel lines?
Any line that is not parallel to the given lines. The transversal that contains the shortest distance between the two parallel lines, is perpendicular to them.
Which of the following is the equation of a line that passes through the point 14 and is parallel to the x-axis?
The parallel equation will have the same slope but with a different y intercept
How do you write an equation that is parallel to a given line and passes through the given point?
Parallel straight line equations have the same slope but with different y intercepts
What is an equation in slope-intercept form for the line that passes through the given point and is parallel to the given line?
Write an equation in slope-intercept form for the line that passes through the given point and is parallel to the given line (-7,3); x=4
What is a line parallel to y-x - 3 and passes through -13?
If you mean: y = -x-3 passing through point of (-1, 3) Then the equation of the parallel line is: y =-x+2
What is the equation of the line that passes through (-8-2) has zero slope?
It is: y = 6 and is parallel to the x axis
