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.
Do perpendicular lines sometimes parallel?
Perpendicular lines intesect each other at 90 degrees and are not normally parallel to each other unless as in a square or rectangle.
If two parallel lines are perpendicular to the same line do the lines intersect?
the parallel lines never intersect each other but they both intersect the line they are perpendicular to
If two lines are perpendicular to the same line then the two lines are parallel?
They are parallel to each other.
Is two lines connected by their perpendicular is parallel?
Parallel lines run in the same direction. If they are intersected by one line and that line is perpendicular to both, then it proves that the lines run parallel to each other.
Can perpendicular lines also be parallel lines?
Perpendicular lines can not be parallel to each other but they can be to other lines.

Does a hexagon have perpendicular or parallel lines?
A hexagon has parallel lines.
Lines of latitude are parallel to it?
Lines of latitude are all parallel to each other, and are parallel to the horizon on many printed maps.
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 a pentagon and a rhombus perpendicular lines and parallel?
A pentagon can have 0, 1 or 2 pairs of parallel lines. It can have 0 to 4 lines perpendicular to an adjacent line. A rhombus must have two pairs of parallel lines and none of them may be perpendicular to any other.
Of longitude and latitude which is parallel?
Latitude lines are parallel to each other because they run parallel to the equator horizontally. Longitude lines, also known as meridians, converge at the poles and intersect at the equator.
Why two lines cannot be both parallel and perpendicular?
Since two parallel lines never intersect, they cannot be perpendicular to each other because perpendicular lines intersect and form angles of 90⁰.
