∙ 14y ago
A perpendicular bisector goes through the median of the line while a perpendicular line can be anywhere on the line as long as it is at a 90 degree angle.

What is the different of a perpendicular lines and intersecting lines?
The only difference between perpendicular lines and intersecting lines is that perpendicular lines create a right angle at the point of intersection.
Why can't a line or ray have a perpendicular bisector?
Because both lines and rays are infinite in length and thus have no midpoint.
What is the difference between perpindicular and intersecting lines?
Intersecting lines can cross at any angle. Perpendicular lines cross or meet at 90 degrees only.
Are intersecting lines perpendicular or not perpendicular?
Intersecting lines may or may not be perpendicular. If the angle of intersection between two intersecting lines is 90 degrees, then the two lines are perpendicular. Otherwise, the lines are not perpendicular. For example: A | | | B ----|----- | | Here, the lines A and B are intersecting. The angle between A and B is 90 degrees. Therefore, line A and line B are perpendicular to each other.
Does perpendicular have parallel lines?
= parallel + perpendicular As such no, perpendicular lines do not naturally have parallel lines. However...connect the lines in the symbols below. ++ ++ And you'll have 4 perpendicular lines, and 4 parallel lines.
Is a circle have perpendicular bisector?
A circle can have perpendicular bisector lines by means of its diameter.
Which of these can not form a perpendicular bisector?
Perpendicular bisector lines intersect at right angles
Can a pair of parallel lines form a perpendicular bisector?
No, they cannot.
How do you draw parallel perpendicular bisector?
Two lines cannot be parallel and perpendicular at the same time.
What is the different of a perpendicular lines and intersecting lines?
The only difference between perpendicular lines and intersecting lines is that perpendicular lines create a right angle at the point of intersection.
What splits a perpendicular bisector into two congruent parts?
A perpendicular bisector splits a line segment into two congruent parts.
What is the difference between a perpendicular lines and intersecting lines?
Intersecting cross each other whereas perpendicular lines cross at right angles.
What is the agular difference between 2 perpendicular lines?
Exactly 90 degrees, that is the definition of perpendicular.
What is the difference between perpendicular lines and perpendicular line segments?
Lines have no end (stretch on forever) Line segments start and end.
What is the difference between perpendicular and intersecting lines?
perpendicular crosses at a right angle, while intersecting lines don't
What is the difference between a right angle and a perpendicular line?
Two perpendicular lines make up a right angle
How many lines of symmetry does an ellipse have?
An ellipse has two lines of mirror symmetry: the line that includes the two foci of the ellipse and the perpendicular bisector of the segment of that line between the two foci.
