How do you add 5 lines to 6 parallel lines to make a total of 9?

Meaningless question. It sounds like a riddle rather than a maths problem. For an answer, assuming it is a riddle, I'd look at the letters that spell NINE. The six parallel lines are the vertical strokes of the letters; the extra five lines are the horizontal and diagonal strokes.

What are 3 attributes of a triangle?
all the lines on a triangle are equal and the opposite sides are parallel
Are railway lines parallel or perpendicular?
Railway lines are parallel. 2 lines are said to be parallel when they are contained in the same plane and do not intersect. This is the definition. That parallel lines exist is an assumption (postulate) of Euclidean geometry:Parallel lines are like the rails of a train track, and you might think of defining them this way, as lines that are the same distance apart everywhere. The problem with this kind of definition is it assumes both tracks are straight. Though this seems an obvious possibility, when you go into the vast universe it is not that obvious. Parallel lines puzzled the best mathematicians for centuries until it was realized that we must assume they exist (you can't prove they exist from simpler postulates). The problem with parallel lines lies in the notion that the lines have infinite extent.Euclid used a somewhat different parallel postulate in trying to avoid the notion of the infinite. He observed that when two parallel lines are intersected by a third line, called a transversal, then if you measure two angles formed by these three lines, on the same side of the transversal and between the parallels, they will add to (that is, they will be supplementary). Such angles are called same-side interior angles.Another important concept is perpendicular. By definition, two lines are perpendicular if they intersect at right angles. That is, two perpendicular lines form 4 right angles. Segments and rays can also be perpendicular. This means they intersect in at least one point, and the two lines containing them are perpendicular.We use perpendicular segments to measure the distance from a point to a line, a point to a plane, or the distance between two parallel lines or planes. The ties of a railroad track are perpendicular to the rails and of the same length. This common length is the distance between the rails. (If parallel lines exist, then railroad tracks in space can go on forever.)There are three theorems about perpendicular lines that you should know. We will not attempt to prove them here, but if you think about them they should be rather obvious.We can use this fact to define the distance from a point to a line: That distance is the length of a segment perpendicular to the line with the given point as one of its endpoints and the other endpoint on the line. In fact, a similar notion holds in 3 dimensions. If we have a plane and a point not on that plane, then there is only one line through the point perpendicular to the plane, and the length of the segment determined by that point and the intersection of the perpendicular line with the plane is defined as the distance from the point to.
Can three parallel vectors of uneven magnitude add to zero?
Yes - if you accept vectors pointing in opposite directions as "parallel". Example: 3 + 2 + (-5) = 0
What do the angles on perpendicular lines add up to?
The angle between two perpendicular lines is 90 degrees. I am not sure whether you are referring to any other angles, and if yes, which ones.
How can i write and equation of the line that passes through the givin point and is parallel to the givin line 0-8 8x 4y 5?
Write the equation of the line that passes through the point (0, 8) and is parallel to the line with equation 8x + 4y = 5.SolutionTwo lines are parallel if they have the same slope.First, we write the slope-intercept form for the given line:8x + 4y = 5 subtract 8x to both sides;4y = -8x + 5 divide by 4 to both sides;y = -2x + 5/4So, the slope of the two lines is -2.By using the point (0, 8), we can write the point-slope form of the required line:(y - y1) = m(x - x1)(y - 8) = -2(x - 0)y - 8 = -2x add 8 to both sides;y = -2x + 8 add 2x to both sides;y + 2x = 8 or2x + y = 8This is the general form of the line that passes through the point (0, 8) and is parallel to the line 8x + 4y = 5
Is angles in parallel lines supposed to add up to 360 degrees?
Parallel lines do not meet. Therefore they do not form any angles! So the angles (that do not exist) cannot add up to anything.
Are alternate exterior angles on parallel lines ever supplementary?
Only if they add up to 180 degrees which would be the case if the parallel lines are cut through by a perpendicular line.
What is the total capacitance of 30 micro-farad capacitors connected in parallel?
In parallel, add the microfarads.
What does angles with parallel lines add up to?

Two lines that will never meet?
parallel lines
What do angles in a trapezium add up to?
The internal angles add up to 360 degrees. If the trapezium has its base parallel to the top then the internal angles on the left of the parallel lines add to 180 degrees, the angles on the right add to 180 degrees.
Can you make nine out of l l l l l l by only adding 5 lines?
You need to add the lines in such a way that they SPELL "nine," not that they add up to make a total of nine lines. It's a trick question. Simply add a diagonal line from top left to bottom right to the first two vertical lines and you have the letter "N." Then leave the third vertical alone as it is already the letter "I." Then do the same thing you did to the first two lines to the fourth and fifth lines for the second "N." Finally, add three horizontal lines to the last vertical line to make the letter "E" and, shazam, you have N-I-N-E.
Why a circuit will produce a loading effect?
This happens because the total parallel resistance is lower than the individual resistors that make up the group of parallel resistors. When you add another parallel load, the resistance of that parallel group lowers and as result increases the current for the rest of the circuit.
How many angles and parallel lines are in a kite?
A kite has no parallel sides but it is a 4 sided quadrilateral whose 4 interior angles add up to 360 degrees
Does you add the shorted resistors in finding the total resistance?
When resistors are wired in series, their resistances are added to find the total resistance. If they are run in parallel, or series-parallel, the formula is different
When you add resistors that are in a series to a ciruit?
You raise the total resistance by that amount if added in series to a circuit. If you add them in parallel to a circuit then that total resistance will be less than the total of the added circuit.
What is co-exterior angle?
A co-exterior angle is almost the same thing as co-interior:Two angles on the same side of the transversal (in a figure where two parallel lines are intersected by a transversal).They are supplementary angles (add up to 180º).They are exterior angles meaning they are outsideof the two parallel lines (opposite of interior angles which are inside the two parallel lines).
