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.
How do you tell if lines are perpendicular based on slope?
The slope (rise over run) of one line will be a number (n) or (-n) and the perpendicular line's slope will be the exact opposite. So, for instance, if one line has a slope of 2/3, then a perpendicular line's slope must be -2/3, and vice versa.
Which muscles run perpendicular to one another but at angle to the long axis to the body?
Oblique
What is the slope of any line perpendicular to the line through points 0 5 and -3 -4?
The slope of a line perpendicular to the line through (0,5) and (-3,-4) will have a slope that is "opposite" that of the first line, which will be the negative inverse of the slope of the first line, which is -[1/slope] of the first line. So let's find the slope of that first line and then invert it and change its sign to find the slope of a line perpendicular to it. A line through the points (0,5) and (-3,-4) will have a slope that can be found by a simple formula. We take the change of y divided by the change of x and it's that simple. It's that "rise over run" thing that you may have heard of. Ready? Let's jump. The change of y is the "rise" and the change of x is the "run" in the expression. Using the points given, the rise is from 5 to -4, or -9. (To get from 5 to -4, you have to go 9 units in the - or negative direction.) The run is from 0 to -3 or -3. (To get from 0 to -3, you have to go 3 units in the - or negative direction.) The rise over the run is -9/-3 or 9/3 or 3/1 or 3. Piece of cake. Let's do it the other way around to be sure you've got it, okay? Switch the coordinates from (0,5) and (-3,-4) to (-3,-4) and (0,5) and work it. The rise or change of y is from -4 to 5, which is a rise of 9 in the + or positive direction, or +9. The run or change of x is from -3 to 0, which is a run of 3 in the + or positive direction, or +3. The rise over the run is +9/+3 = 9/3 = 3/1 = 3. The slopes match. And why wouldn't they? Onward. We need to take the negative inverse of that slope to find a line perpendicular to it. Let's do that and be done with our problem. A line perpendicular to another line with the slope 3 will have a slope of - (1/3) or - 1/3 or negative 1/3rd or a negative one third. The slope of a line perpendicular to a line through (0,5) and (-3,-4) is - 1/3 or negative one third.
Are perpendicular parallel line meet at right angles?
Parallel lines are lines that run side by side and never meet. Perpendicular lines are lines that meet in one point, forming four right angles around the point.
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.
Is a pass behind the line of scrimmage a run or pass?
It depends on where the quarterback is standing in relation to the receiver. If the pass is forward, it is still a pass even if the receiver is behind the line of scrimmage. If the pass is backwards, it is considered a lateral and therefore a run.

What is the volleyball endline?
The endline is the out of bounds line that can also be called the serving line. It is parallel with the net where as the side lines run perpendicular to the net.
In which direction does a parellel or line of latitude run?
Latitude lines run from east to west, parallel to the equator. Longitudinal lines are perpendicular to latitude lines and run north to south.
Beth thinks that a train tracks run parallel to each other kim thinks that they run perpendicular to each other who is correct?
Neither. They run paralevel with one another.
What are suicide sprints?
Suicide sprints are simply running from one line to another and on each sequential run the lines get further apart. For example, on a football field, start at the end zone. To complete one pass, run to the 10 yard line, touch it, and run back. For the next pass, run from the end zone to the 20-yard line and back. For the next pass, go to the 30-yard line.... And so on. The lines can, in reality, be as far apart or close as necessary. The reason they are called suicide sprints (or just "suicides") are because you end up doing several sets and you quickly want to stop or even "die".
Can the defensive line hold the jersey?
he can hold the jersey of another linemen, but cannot hold the jersey of an eligible receiver while running a route for a pass. There is no defensive holding on a run play.

Which figure contains a pair of perpendicular line segments?
Two ways to determine if two line segments are perpendicular:1. Determine the angle formed: if the angle made by the two line segments is 90 degrees, then they are perpendicular. This can sometimes be done visually if the graph has grids, but probably not what the question is asking you to do.2. Compare slopes*: if the slopes are negative inverses of each other, they are perpendicular. For example, if the slope of one line is 5, the slope for the other line would need to be -1/5, or -0.2. An easy way to remember, is if the product of the two slopes is -1, they are perpendicular.*Side note: slope is "rise over run", or change in y divided by change in x
Another name for slope?
Gradient is another term used to describe the slope of a line or surface. It represents the rate of change or steepness of a line or surface.
