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 are
not parallel, then they must intersect, and they can be perpendicular or not.

How are perpendicular lines similar and different to intersecting lines?
Perpendicular lines are specific kinds of intersecting lines. They both cross paths. Intersecting lines can cross paths in any way, but perpendicular lines have to cross at right angles.
How are perpendicular lines similar to intersecting line?
perpendicular lines are a special type of intersecting line that happen to intersect at 90 degree angles
How is perpendicular lines similar to intersecting lines?
Perpendicular lines are lines that cross at right angles. Intersecting lines can cross at any angle.
How are perpindicular lines similar to intersecting lines?
A perpendicular line is a type of intersecting line that crosses the other line at a right angle.
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 is an orthographic drawing similar to or different from an isometric drawing?
orthographics means line is perpendicular to the view plane,while oblique means line is not exactly perpendicular to the view plane.

How are the prisms similar?
They all have cross sections that remain constant when intersected by a plane perpendicular to their lengths.
Why would the formula of area of a parallelogram be similar to a rectangle?
Because the area of a parallelogram is length times perpendicular height and the area of a rectangle is also length times perpendicular height
Are copper and silver similar or different?
