Where does two lines intersect in geometry?

If they do intersect, it will be at their point of intersection.


Where do parallel lines intersect?

In Euclidean geometry, parallel lines never intersect. They go this way forever and never intersect but watch this typing. _______________ _______________ In non-Euclidean geometry, they intersect when the faces are uneven.


How many ways can two different lines intersect?

It depends on how you define "ways" and how you define "lines" and how you define "intersect" and what kind of geometry you're talking about, but in Euclidean geometry, lines either never intersect, or they intersect at a single point, or they can intersect at all points within the lines.


What are perpendicular lines in geometry?

Lines that intersect at right angles


What is perpindicular lines in geometry?

They are lines that intersect at 90 degrees


How many points do tree parallel lines intersect?

None. Parallel lines do not intersect in Euclidean geometry.


What are lines that do not intersect in geometry?

Parallel lines remain equal distance apart and never intersect each other.


What does intersect mean in geometry?

two lines meeting at a point.


Can perpendicular lines be intersecting lines?

In Euclidean plane geometry, two lines which are perpendicular not only can but must intersect. (I believe the same is true for elliptic geometry and hyperbolic geometry.)


Do all parallel lines intersect?

No. In ordinary Euclidean geometry, parallel lines neverintersect.


Do skew lines meet at any point?

Skew lines in 3 dimensional geometry, do not lie in the same plane, and will not intersect. Think of an overpass 'crossing' a freeway. From an aerial view they appear to intersect, but one is above the other (in different planes). They do not touch each other.


Where do two distinct parallel lines intersect?

A vertex? In non-euclidean geometry: A two distinct parallel lines intersect in the "Infinity zone"
