What are not horizontal and vertical lines?
Any line that is not running exactly straight up and down is not vertical. Any line that is not running exactly flat, left to right is not horizontal. Vertical and horizontal lines are always at 90 degrees to each other.
Does a square have to have a vertical line if it's got a horizontal line?
Yes. By definition a square has four equal sides and four 90º angles, so any two adjacent sides are perpendicular.
What is the slope of the line perpendicular to y5?
I can't tell if you meant to say ' y5 ' or ' y = 5'.-- ' y5 ' is just a number. It can't be graphed, it doesn't represent a line, and the phrase"perpendicular to it" has no meaning.-- ' y = 5 ' is the equation of a horizontal line. Its slope is zero. Any vertical line,with the equation [ x = a number ] is perpendicular to it. The slope of a vertical lineis "undefined" if you want to be mathematically correct, or "infinity" if you don't care.
For perpendicular lines if the slope of one line is -2 what is the slope of the line perpendicular to it?
For any two perpendicular lines (save a vertical and a horizontal one), the product of their slopes is always -1. For two perpendicular lines with one having a slope of -2, the other will have a slope equal to -1 divided by -2, which equals 1/2.
Must any lines lies in vertical plane be a vertical line?
That depends. How tough do you think it would be to draw a horizontal line or a slanting line on the wall ?
Why a vertical datum is alevel surface not a horizontal surface?
because the datum surface is perpendicular tothe direction of gravity at any point on it.but the horizontal surface is perpendicular to vertical at one point on it :D
What is a vertical rays?
Vertical rays are rays that are perpendicular to a surface or vertical axis. They travel directly up or down without any horizontal components.

Rise is the horizontal change between any two points on a line?
No, rise is the vertical change. Run is the horizontal change.
What is the slope of a line that is parallel to a horizontal line?
Well since the lines are parallel they would have the same slope. And the slope of any horizontal line is 0. The slope of a vertical line is undefined.
What is nonvertical line is the ratio of the vertical change to the horizontal change between any two points on a line?
The slope.
What is the equation of horizontal and vertical?
The equation of a horizontal line is y = constant (e.g you might have y=2 if your horizontal line is 2 up the y axis).For a vertical line the equation will be x=constant so if you wanted the equstion of the vertical line that crosses the x axis at 5 it would be x=5.If you want the equations of the horizontal and vertical axis then they are:horizontal axis: y=0vertical axis: x=0
The slope of a line is the ratio of the?
vertical change to the horizontal change between any two points on the line. study island.
