Is two distinct lines with same x intercept parallel?
No. In order to be parallel, two lines would have to have the same slope, and different intercepts.Why? Two lines with different slopes, but the same intercepts would result in two intersecting lines. Two lines with the same slope, and the same intercept would result in the same line. Two lines with the same slope, and different intercepts would be parallel.
Does a triangle have a set of parallel lines?
No. it is the only polygon that can not have parallel lines all though any regular polygon with an odd number of lines will have no parallel lines If three points were in a straight line it could be argued that these formed a triangle with parallel sides, though really it would be just a line; or if we had a triangle with infinite height the sides would be parallel. In any other case, no.
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.
If one line has a slope of then the slope of a line parallel to it would be?
The same. Parallel lines have the same slope.
If two lines are parallel to the same line what are they?
I guess that would also make them parallel to each other.
Are parallel lines actually parallel?
If they were not actually parallel then they would not be parallel lines!
When do you use parallel lines in everyday life?
parallel lines are everywhere. They are on the desk you are at, the windows, the very monitor you are looking at. Any two lines that run next to each other are parallel, and without this, very few things would be straight.
What does parallel lines mean?
Parallel lines are lines on a graph that have the same slope, but are in different positions. For example, the two sides of a ladder, would represent parallel lines.
Does a diamond have parallel lines?
NO. A diamond does not have parallel lines. All the lines would eventually connect.
When two angles that do not intersect and are not parallel they are called what?
This is actually a paradox, such a series of lines does not exist. Assuming that two lines are not parallel, then in theory if they were extended to infinity they would always touch, without exception.
Why is parallel lines defined?
Otherwise nobody would know what was meant by parallel lines!
What are lines that lie in different planes that do not intersect?
Parallel lines would always lie in the same plane. They would need to be skew lines.
How many parallel lines does an decagon have?
A regular decagon would have five sets or parallel lines.
Two lines that never intersect?
The answer would be parallel lines these lines never meet or cross each other.
What shape has 4 parallel lines?
Four parallel lines would not correspond to any of the commonly taught shapes. Two pairs of parallel lines would be characteristic of the square, rhombus, rectangle, and parallelogram
What are lines in the same plane that are not parallel and do not intersect?
If they are not parallel and do not intersect then they would not be in the same plane (not possible), but they would be called skew lines.
What would you call two lines which do not intersect?
parallel lines
