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.
What is perpendicular line?
A sole line can't be perpendicular. To be perpendicular, a line has to meet with another line, to form right angles on either side. Perpendicular is the exact opposite of parallel. Parallel: = Perpendicular: -|
Which letters in the alphabet contain parallel and perpendicular lines?
Parallel: E, F, H, I, M, N, O (in some fonts), U, Z. Perpendicular: E, F, G, H, L, T. Many more letters have perpendicular lines in serif fonts. Also, there are letters, such as D, in which the ends of the curved section are parallel to one another and are perpendicular to the vertical element.
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.
All cross-sectional shapes that are parallel or perpendicular to one of the bases of a what are also congruent to one another?
cube
Is a rectangle parallel or perpendicular?
Rectangles are made up of 2 sets of parallel lines, which are perpendicular to one another.
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.
When two parallel lines are crossed by another line. what is it?
two parallel lines are crossed by another line ,that's the perpendicular.
Are a vertical line and a horizontal line parallel or perpendicular?
Perpendicular is when a line is at a right angle to another. Parallel lines are side by side and even if they were to go on to infinity, would never meet. Therefore the answer is perpendicular.
What is perpendicular line?
A sole line can't be perpendicular. To be perpendicular, a line has to meet with another line, to form right angles on either side. Perpendicular is the exact opposite of parallel. Parallel: = Perpendicular: -|
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 a rhombus parallel or perpendicular?
A rhombus is perpendicular * * * * * No, it is not. A rhombus is a four sided plane figure which has two pairs of parallel sides. It is, therefore, a parallelogram. The only thing that is perpendicular in a rhombus is that its diagonals bisect one another at right angles.
What is the opposite of parallel?
The opposite is perpendicular (a straight line that hits another at a right angle).
Is y equals 3x -1 parallel or perpendicular?

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.
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.
Which letters in the alphabet contain parallel and perpendicular lines?
Parallel: E, F, H, I, M, N, O (in some fonts), U, Z. Perpendicular: E, F, G, H, L, T. Many more letters have perpendicular lines in serif fonts. Also, there are letters, such as D, in which the ends of the curved section are parallel to one another and are perpendicular to the vertical element.
