Yes; but in math, if you talk about "lines", that means one that stretches infinitely in both directions. If you are talking about limited-length "lines", those are called "segments".

Can two lines still be parallel even if there not the same size?

yes


Parallel lines have the same?

Slope and some times size


What are angles between the parallel lines and on the opposite sided of the tranversal?

They are alternate angles which are equal in size


What does the symbol of two parallel wavy lines mean?

The two wavy lines symbolizes that the shapes are congruent. This means that they are the same size as each other.


If two parallel lines are cut by a transversal then the alternate exterior angles are?

Then the alternate angles created would be equal in size.


What are the properties of alternate angle?

Alternate angles are created when a transversal line cuts through parallel lines and they are equal in size


I have 2 pair of parallel sides. The opposite sides are equal in length. All of the angles are equal in size and there are 2 lines of symmetry. What am I?

A rectangle.


Is it possible to draw two lines on a sphere that are parallel?

If by parallel, you mean two lines that do not intersect, yes, it is possible to draw them on the surface of a sphere. They will end up being circles, and most pairs will not be equal in size. If you add the idea that the two lines also continue to infinity to the definition, then you cannot draw such things on the surface of a sphere.


Can a triangle have two parallel sides?

If it is normal, in that it has finite size, then no. parallel lines never meet together in any way The answer is apparently yes, according to non-euclidian geometry. I do not know the specifics, but I am researching it now. It has to do with a triangle inside a sphere.


I have 2 pairs of parallel sides. My opposite sides are equal in length. All my angles are equal in size. I have two lines of symmetry. What am I?

The answer is any rectangle that is not a square: such a rectangle has two lines of symmetry, whereas a square has four.


What does a correspnding angle mean?

When a transversal line cuts through parallel lines corresponding angles are formed and they are equal in sizes Alternate angles are also formed and they too are equal in size


Do Lines of Longitude run parallel to each other?

Latitude lines run parallel to the Equator while longitudinal lines (also called meridians) run north-south. The latitude angle ranges from 0 degrees at the Equator to 90 degrees at either the north or south pole.
