Obviously it can.

The type of lines that are perpendicular but do not intersect are known as 'Skew' lines. These can be better understood by using vectors in three-dimensional.

I have reason to think that you yourself, do not know what your asking for and therefore I must tell you this. 90degrees= perpendicular.

Two intersecting lines but not perpendicular?

Non-perpendicular intersecting lines. There is no special name.


Are intersecting lines perpendicular or not perpendicular?

Intersecting lines may or may not be perpendicular. If the angle of intersection between two intersecting lines is 90 degrees, then the two lines are perpendicular. Otherwise, the lines are not perpendicular. For example: A | | | B ----|----- | | Here, the lines A and B are intersecting. The angle between A and B is 90 degrees. Therefore, line A and line B are perpendicular to each other.


What is the difference between perpendicular and intersecting lines?

perpendicular crosses at a right angle, while intersecting lines don't


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.


How are perpendicular lines like intersecting lines?

perpendicular lines are similar to intersecting lines because that's what they are. Intersecting lines are two lines that cross each other. Perpendicular lines are the same, two lines crossing each other, just with a more specific rule to have right angles.


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 are two intersecting lines called?

Either perpendicular lines if the lines create 90o angles or intersecting lines.

What are two perpendicular lines named?

Can the same two lines be perpendicularparalleland intersecting?

No, because although perpendicular and intersecting lines do touch, parallel lines never meet.
