That depends on the specific situation. You may want to measure angles (perpendicular lines are at a right angle, i.e., 90°). If you have equations for line, write them in the slope-intercept form. Parallel lines have the same slope. If lines are perpendicular, the product of their slopes is -1.

Can oblique lines be parallel?
No, oblique lines are neither parallel nor perpendicular
Determine whether the graphs of the equations are parallelperpendicular or neither?
Base on the slope of two linear equations (form: y = mx+b, where slope is m): - If slopes are equal, the 2 graphs are parallel - If the product of two slopes equals to -1, the 2 graphs are perpendicular. If none of the above, then the 2 graphs are neither parallel nor perpendicular.
Are parallel and perpendicular opposites?
Yes, parallel and perpendicular are opposites.
Does a rhombus have perpendicular lines and parallel lines?
Perpendicular: No Parallel: Yes, two pairs.
Is y -7 and y 5 parallel perpendicular or neither?
Neither because the value of the x slope has not been given nor have proper straight line equations been given
