What is formed when two lines intersect?
Perpendicular lines are a possibility. This will only happen if the intersecting lines are exactly 90 degrees from each other.
How would you describe two lines that meet together at 90?
Orthogonal lines or perpendicular lines
Which shape has parallel lines but no perpendicular lines?
A rhombus has parallel lines but no perpendicular lines.
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.
Real life examples of perpendicular lines?
An example of a perpendicular line is a 4 way intersection at a stop sign. Another example would be a window that has 4 smaller squares in it.
How many perpendicular lines are there in a trapezium?
A trapezium has no right angles therefore there are no perpendicular lines. If it had perpendicular lines, it would be a square or rectangle.
How are perpendicular lines similar to intersecting line?
perpendicular lines are a special type of intersecting line that happen to intersect at 90 degree angles
How can perpendicular lines affect your daily life?
If the walls in your house were not perpendicular they would probably topple over and you would no longer have a daily life for perpendicular lines to affect.
How many perpendicular lines does a circle have?
A circles has no perpendicular lines. Perpendicular lines are two straight lines that join forming 90 degree angles. They are found in squares, rectangles, and right-angled triangles. A circle is made by one line that is not straight but is curved. If you drew a circle, rectangle, right-angled triangle, or cross in the circle, then the circle would contain perpendicular lines. But the circle itself would have no perpendicular lines.
Does perpendicular have parallel lines?
= parallel + perpendicular As such no, perpendicular lines do not naturally have parallel lines. However...connect the lines in the symbols below. ++ ++ And you'll have 4 perpendicular lines, and 4 parallel lines.
What is formed when two lines intersect?
Perpendicular lines are a possibility. This will only happen if the intersecting lines are exactly 90 degrees from each other.
What is similar about perpendicular lines and intersecting lines?
Perpendicular lines intersect.
How would you describe two lines that meet together at 90?
Orthogonal lines or perpendicular lines
Does an equilateral have parallel lines or perpendicular lines?
PERPENDICULAR
Does a rectangle have perpendicular lines and parallel lines?
perpendicular.
How do examples of perpendicular lines look?
These lines are perpendicular: _|
What are non-perpendicular lines?
Lines that aren't perpendicular
