any direction they just run alongside each other
The lines have to intersect because lines go on forever and if then are not parallel then they will collide. Even if they are not parallel by one degree they will still intersect.
No, But 1 Dimensional Does. The lines may or may not go on forever but that has no effect on whether or not a parallel line will cross.
Yes, you are right. A line segment eventually ends. In fact, a segment has two endpoints. But parallel lines go on forever; they have no endpoints.Example: (arrows indicating they go on forever)_____________________ (these are parallel line segments)
A way to remember what a parallel lines looks like is that the word "parallel" has two "ls" in it. Ex: Para"ll"el. Parallel lines go side by side in the same direction like rail road tracks. Hope this helped. ;)

No. Parallel lines are lines that extend in the same direction. In a triangle the lines go in different directions.
In Euclidean geometry, parallel lines never intersect. They go this way forever and never intersect but watch this typing. _______________ _______________ In non-Euclidean geometry, they intersect when the faces are uneven.

If two lines go on forever without touching but are not parallel, they are skew, lines that do not lie in the same plane.

Lines that go side to side, but never touch, are known as parallel lines. The two railway lines on which a train runs along is a common example of parallel lines.
Lines of latitude are any of the circles, called parallels, that are to the north or to the south of the equator and parallel to it. They are the lines on standard maps that go from east to west; right-left.It is an imaginary line around the Earth parallel to the equator.
Parallel in maths means opposite. Two parallel lines can never touch. I you are not sure if two lines are parallel then imagine that these lines go on for ever, will they eventually cross?

If you mean a 'parallel' of latitude on the earth, then it is a circle that proceeds east and west from any point on it. There can be any desired number of them, the only specification being that every point on the 'parallel' has the same geographic latitude. Since these are all curved lines, it's hard to say that they are parallel in the same sense as parallel straight lines on a flat surface. But the planes they lie in are all truly parallel planes.
