What do you call it when two lines meet?
its called the intersept point when they don't meet its called a parallel line
What is the difference between a perpendicular and parallel line?
A perpendicular line is a line that creates two 90 degree angles at the line, segment, etc. that it intersects. Parallel lines are two lines that never intersect. Perpendicular lines cross at right angles (+) Parallel lines will never meet, no matter how far they are extended (=)
How could you construct an equilateral triangle on any given line segment?
The answer depends on what instruments you have available. If you have a protractor, draw an inward facing 60 degree angle from each end of the line segment, and extend the lines until they meet.
What do you call when two lines have meet?
It depends what shape the lines meet in. If they meet in a triangle the point in which the lines meet are called the vertex.In Geometry, this isn't precisely true, since there are no "lines" in a triangle, only line segments.In Euclidean (standard) geometry, two lines can only:(a) meet at a single "point"; OR(b) never meet (they are parallel lines).You could ask "what if they meet at several points?". In that case, there is just one line. A line goes on infinitely far in either direction. And if two lines meet at more than one point, they are congruent at every point, and are therefore both just the same line. It is impossible for two different lines to meet at two or more points in Euclidean geometry.
What is a line segment where two faces of a solid figure meet?
They meet at an edge

What is a line segment where two faces of a solid figure meet?
They meet at an edge
What do you call intersecting lines that meet?
you call intersecting lines that meet, just intersecting lines yolanda
A line segment formed when two faces meet?
edge
A line segment where 2 edges meet is called?
vertex
What do you call lines in a plain that do not meet?
Parallel lines are equidistant apart and never meet
Lines that always form right angles when they meet?
Lines that always form right angles when they meet are perpendicular lines. The first line is perpendicular to a second line.
What is a line segment at which two faces of a prism meet?
That would be an edge.
What do people call parallel lines when they meet in the distance?
They are not parallel if they meet. The only other possibility may be if they are the same line, in which case they are parallel, and meet in the distance (though there is no distinguishing one from the other).
