Can two lines be parellel perpendicular and intersecting at the same time?
No. If the lines are parallel they will never meet or intersect at any point. If the lines are perpendicular they do intersect, but perpendicular lines are a special case of intersecting lines. Perpendicular lines are exactly 90 degrees from each other. Intersecting lines do not haveto be perpendicular... but perpendicular lines are always intersecting.
What is opposite parallel lines?
the opposite of parallel lines are Perpendicular. A perpendicular angle or line is where there is a 90 degree on each and every side.
Is a square parallel or perpendicular?
In a square adjacent sides are perpendicular to each other and opposite sides are parallel to each other.
How do you relate parallel and perpendicular lines to the real world?
If you are sitting in a room, the ceiling and the floor are parallel to each other. The walls are perpendicular to the floor and to the ceiling. So any line on these surfaces will be parallel to or perpendicular to any line on the other surface. And if they were not, the building could be quite unstable.
Are lines e and g perpendicular or parallel?
If two lines (which extend infinitely in each direction) lie on the same plane but never intersect, then the lines are parallel. If the lines somewhere intersect, they are not. And if they intersect at right angles, they are orthogonal, or perpendicular.
