How are perpendicular lines similar to intersecting lineshow are they different?
The question is baffling. They're not different. Perpendicular lines must be intersecting lines.The only lines that are not intersecting lines are parallel lines. If two lines arenot parallel, then they must intersect, and they can be perpendicular or not.
What do geometric lines mean?
They could be: parallel lines, perpendicular lines or intersecting lines
Lines of latitude and lines of longitude are perpendicular to?
Every meridian of longitude is perpendicular to every parallel of latitude, and every parallel of latitude is perpendicular to every meridian of longitude.
What is a line intersecting a pair of parallel lines?
perpendicular line
How do you label intersecting lines?
lines that intersect= perpendicular lineslines that do not intersect= parallel

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 latitude lines parallel or perpendicular?
Parallel. Latitude and longitude are perpendicular.
Are metal rails an example of parallel intersecting and perpendicular lines?
parallel
What do geometric lines mean?
They could be: parallel lines, perpendicular lines or intersecting lines
Lines of latitude and lines of longitude are perpendicular to?
Every meridian of longitude is perpendicular to every parallel of latitude, and every parallel of latitude is perpendicular to every meridian of longitude.
What is a line intersecting a pair of parallel lines?
perpendicular line
How do you label intersecting lines?
lines that intersect= perpendicular lineslines that do not intersect= parallel
Can the same two lines be perpendicularparalleland intersecting?
No, because although perpendicular and intersecting lines do touch, parallel lines never meet.
Can the same two lines be parallel perpendicular and intersecting at the same time?
No.
Are all Intersecting lines parallel?
Parallel lines cannot intersect in the Euclidean plane. Intersecting lines are not parallel.
Are perpendicular lines parallel to each other?
No, perpendicular means intersecting or forming right angles.
