PARALLEL AND PERPENDICULAR LINESParallel lines can run side by side on forever but perpendicular lines make a 90 degree angle.
Yes, it is true. If a transversal is perpendicular to one of two parallel lines, it must also be perpendicular to the other parallel line. This is a consequence of the properties of parallel lines and transversals, which dictate that corresponding angles formed by the transversal and the parallel lines are congruent. Therefore, if one angle is a right angle, the other must also be a right angle, confirming the perpendicularity.
No. Parallel lines do not intersect; perpendicular lines intersect at 90 degrees
-- I can say that the equation of the line is [ x = a number ]. -- I can also say that the line is vertical on a graph. -- I can also say that the line is parallel to the y-axis. -- Also that it's perpendicular to the x-axis.
The straight line equation is y = mx + b. If they do not cross and have the same slope they are parallel; if they cross and the slope (m) of one of them is the negative inverse slope of the other (-1/m) they are perpendicular. Otherwise they are neither
No, you need either two points, one point and a slope, one point and a y-intercept, or a y-intercept an a slope. You can also write the equation of a line with an equation of another line but you would have to know if it is parallel or perpendicular.

Perpendicular lines can not be parallel to each other but they can be to other lines.
A square and a rectangle have perpendicular and parallel lines. The two side lines extending upwards from the base line are perpendicular to the base line. The line extending from each of the side lines across the top is perpendicular to the side lines. The top line is also parallel to the base line, and the side lines are also parallel to each other.

Railroad tracks or the number 11 are parallel lines. A cross or a small t are perpendicular lines. Also the two ll's in the middle of parallel are parallel lines.

There are letters in the alphabet with both parallel and perpendicular lines. In alphabetical order, they are E, F, and H. If the joining point can be considered perpendicular and parallel, then B, D, P, and R also match the criterion.
If the rungs are perpendicular to one side of the ladder, then they must be parallel to the other side of the ladder. This is because if one side is perpendicular to the rungs, the other side, being parallel to the first side, will also be perpendicular to the rungs.

If there are given two parallel line L1 and L2, and a third line L3 that is perpendicular to L1, then the line L3 must also be perpendicular to L2.
The straight line equation is y = mx + b. If they do not cross and have the same slope they are parallel; if they cross and the slope (m) of one of them is the negative inverse slope of the other (-1/m) they are perpendicular. Otherwise they are neither
