To find a segment parallel to another segment through a given point using paper folding techniques?
Fold the paper so the line is on itself. Fold this folded edge on itself causing a crease to form that goes through the point in question, You are using the theorem that lines perpendicular to the same line are parallel.
What is the difference between parallel and perpendicular line on rectangle?
The difference between a perpendicular line and a parallel line is that a perpendicular line crosses or joins, while a parallel line doesn't touch at all.
Name a pair of parallel line segments?
Which pair. Of line is parallel fghj
What is the slope of a parallel line?
Parallel lines have the same slope. So if you have a line with slope = 2, for example, and another line is parallel to the first line, it will also have slope = 2.
If one of two parallel lines is perpendicular to another line is the other of the two lines parallel to the third line?
since one parallel lines is perpendicular to another line, the other parallel line is perpendicular to the line as well. so the two would not be parallel, only the original two.
A given line is always parallel to itself?
False.
Is y equals -5x 9 parallel or perpendicular?
y = -5x + 9 is the equation of a straight line. It cannot be parallel or perpendicular by itself, you need another line to compare it to.
Is y equals 5x plus 3 parallel or perpindicular?
Neither: because one line, by itself, can be neither parallel or perpendicular. These characteristics are relevant only in the context of another line (or lines). The given line is parallel to some lines and perpendicular to others.
How does the graph nof the line changes as you make b larger but keep m the same?
The line shift upwards, parallel to itself.
Can a single line be parallel to itself?
Normally 2 equidistance lines are needed to designate them as parallel lines. If we say parallel lines, we mean different lines. However, we can say that the line can be parallel to itself if we move it to another dimension. For example, if the line lives in 2D, we can paralleled move it it in the 3D space, and move it again where it was, or vice versa. The beauty is that this line has a unique position on the plane, but in 3D it has infinitely many positions without breaking the condition, the same direction.
Which way are latitude lines to the equator?
The equator itself is a 'line' of latitude. All others are parallel to the equator.
How do you draw a line parallel to a given line?
[A Parallel line is a straight line, opposite to another, that do not intersect or meet.] Ie. Line 1 is Parallel to Line 2. ------------------------------------------------- <Line 1 ------------------------------------------------- <Line 2
What is a line which cuts parallel line?
The line that cuts a parallel line is called a TRANSVERSAL. When you have parallel lines and you want to show like corresponding, vertical, ect.... then the line that cut through the parallel lines is a TRANSVERSAL
To find a segment parallel to another segment through a given point using paper folding techniques?
Fold the paper so the line is on itself. Fold this folded edge on itself causing a crease to form that goes through the point in question, You are using the theorem that lines perpendicular to the same line are parallel.
How do you find a slope of a line parallel?
Line a is parallel to line b, m, and . Find .
What is the need of parallel line algorithm?
Do you mean "Why might a parallel line algorithm be needed?" or "What properties does a parallel line algorithm need to have?".
What is the slope of a line parallel to a vertical line?
A vertical line has an undefined slope. For the line to be parallel to a vertical line, the slopes would have to be the same. Therefore, the line parallel to a vertical line also has an undefined slope.
