Parallel lines stay a fixed distance apart to infinity.

two line segments that are not parallel are intersecting even if they don't touch like this /l / l they are considered intersecting because you must extend it like they are lines to say they are parallel or not
No. parallel means: extending in the same direction, equidistant at all points, and never converging or diverging: parallel rows of trees. for example: these lines are parallel l l these lines are not / l
IncorrectThere is nothing in the above Statement of Conditions that indicate the orientation of the Line L to the plane E.Therefore: there are two possible solutions.If the Line is parallel to the plane they never intersect.If it is not parallel then the line would intersect at only one point.
No because there is no other line parallel to I
Parallel lines are lines which share the same gradient. In Euclidean geometry (the geometry used in standard mathematics and day-to-day physics), parallel lines will never meet at a point, but will share every point along their (infinite) lengths if 1 point is observed to coincide with both. The parallel postulate, which is a geometric axiom of Euclid's geometry, defines these properties. However, by moving into elliptical and hyperbolic geometries, parallel lines can be allow to intersect at points (where parallel lines are defined as 2 lines having the same gradient), whilst still retaining logically consistent geometrical definitions. Parallel lines are the opposite of perpendicular lines which meet at right angles.
