Parallel lines are how far from one another?
They can be any distance apart
How do you find the last side of a trapezoidal prism i have the two unparallel sides and side a how do i find side b?
Assuming a and b are the parallel sides of the trapezoid then with great difficulty - you need to know how far apart the parallel sides are.
What kind of slopes gives you lines that are far apart?
If the slopes of two lines are unequal, they will cross somewhere, so the distance between them depends on x, and isn't really defined.If the slopes are equal, they are parallel, so they don't cross. So two lines are far apart if they have the same slope and a large difference in their x or y intercepts.
A 40ft tall mounument casts a shadow that just reaches the base of a 4ft tall parking meter if the parking meter's shadow is 6.5 ft long how far apart are the monument and the meter?
The shadow of the 4 foot parking meter's shadow is 6.5. The shadow of the 40 foot tall monument has to be 65 (4/6.5 = 40/x so x is 65) a2+b2=c2 402+b2=652 1600 + b2 = 4225 b2 = 2625 b = about 51.2347 feet apart
What is parallel perpendicular lines look like?
As far as we know, two lines can be perpendicular, or they can be parallel, but they can't be both.
