Can perpendicular lines also be parallel lines?

Perpendicular lines can not be parallel to each other but they can be to other lines.


Are the lines of latitude of parallel or perpendicular to each other?

They are parallel to each other.


Can perpendicular lines be parallel lines?

It is impossible for parallel lines to be perpendicular. Perpendicular lines are intersecting lines, meaning that they cross each other. Parallel lines, on the other hand, are lines that never meet, no matter how far they are extended in either direction. So intersecting lines (which includes perpendicular lines) and parallel lines are exact opposites. Parallel lines will never meet or cross; they cannot be perpendicular.


Do perpendicular lines sometimes parallel?

Perpendicular lines intesect each other at 90 degrees and are not normally parallel to each other unless as in a square or rectangle.

Is perpendicular and parallel the same?

No, perpendicular lines are lines which intersect (cross each other/meet) and a 90 degree angle, while parallel lines a lines which run along side each other and will never intersect/meet.


What shape has parallel lines and perpendicular lines?

A square and a rectangle have perpendicular and parallel lines. The two side lines extending upwards from the base line are perpendicular to the base line. The line extending from each of the side lines across the top is perpendicular to the side lines. The top line is also parallel to the base line, and the side lines are also parallel to each other.


Is two lines connected by their perpendicular is parallel?

Parallel lines run in the same direction. If they are intersected by one line and that line is perpendicular to both, then it proves that the lines run parallel to each other.
