How do perpendicular differ from intersecting lines?
Perpendicular lines are a subset of intersecting lines. The only difference is that perpendicular lines intersect at an angle of 90o, whereas intersecting lines can converge at any angle.
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.
Are intersecting lines that form right angle?
Intersecting lines that form a right angle are perpendicular lines.
What is the difference between perpendicular and intersecting lines?
perpendicular crosses at a right angle, while intersecting lines don't
What would happen if lines were not perpendicular?
If lines were not perpendicular,they would either be intersecting or parrallel.
How are perpendicular lines and intersecting lines alike and how are they different?
Some intersecting lines are perpendicular lines.Take any old pair of intersecting lines. If the angles at the intersectionhappen to be 90 degree angles, then the lines are perpendicular lines.
How are intersecting lines alike to perpendicular lines?
intersecting lines are alike because perpendicular lines have to intersect to be perpendicular. 2: They are the same because they touch another line so they are the same.
How are perpendicular lines and intersecting lines alike and different?
they both have lines crossing each other which make angles. perpendicular lines make right angles while intersecting lines make other kinds
How are perpendicular lines different and Alike from intersecting lines?
Perpendicular lines are in shape of (most of the time) a plus sign (+) and intersecting lines speak for themselves: the lines intersect with one another. They are alike becuase they both have a vertex (when two or more lines meet; the center where the two or more lines meet). They may be different becuase a perpendicular line always has four right angles (or more), when intersecting lines can have various types of angles. Or to put it, perpendicular lines are a more specific type of intersecting line. -By Izzy; 6th grade; Content is 3rd to 4th grade basic geometry
What is the different of a perpendicular lines and intersecting lines?
The only difference between perpendicular lines and intersecting lines is that perpendicular lines create a right angle at the point of intersection.
How are perpendicular lines similar to intersecting lineshow are they different?
The question is baffling. They're not different. Perpendicular lines must be intersecting lines.The only lines that are not intersecting lines are parallel lines. If two lines arenot parallel, then they must intersect, and they can be perpendicular or not.
How are perpendicular lines different from a intersecting lines?
They are not. The perpendicular bisectors of a triangle, for example, intersect at the orthocentre of the triangle. So perpendicular lines can be intersecting and conversely.
How are perpendicular lines and intersecting line alike?
Perpendicular lines are lines that intersect each other at 90 degrees or at right angles
How are perpendicular lines different to a intersecting lines?
perpendicualr lines form 90 degree angles and intersecting lines just insersect. perpendicular: _ l _ intersecting: x l
How are perpendicular lines similar and different to intersecting lines?
Perpendicular lines are specific kinds of intersecting lines. They both cross paths. Intersecting lines can cross paths in any way, but perpendicular lines have to cross at right angles.
How are perpindicular lines alike to intersecting lines?
Perpendicular lines are lines that intersect at a right angle (90 degrees).
How are perpendicular lines intersecting lines different?
You are so stupid
