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 would happen if lines were not perpendicular?
If lines were not perpendicular,they would either be intersecting or parrallel.
What lines are intersecting lines that form square corners?
