Lines can be described as straight paths that extend infinitely in both directions, characterized by their length but lacking width. They can be defined mathematically by equations, such as y = mx + b in a Cartesian coordinate system, where m represents the slope and b the y-intercept. In geometry, lines are fundamental elements used to form shapes and angles, and they can also be categorized as horizontal, vertical, or diagonal based on their orientation. Additionally, lines can convey direction, movement, and can possess various properties such as parallelism and perpendicularity.
Skew lines can simply be described as two lines that are not coplanar (they are not in the same plane). This means that they do not intersect and are not parallel.
Lines that intersect right angles (ninety-degree angles) are described as perpendicular.

Lines that are described as a straight continuous arrangement of an infinite number of points are known as geometric lines in mathematics. These lines extend infinitely in both directions and have no width or thickness, consisting solely of a series of points that are collinear. In Euclidean geometry, lines can be defined by two distinct points or by a linear equation. They are fundamental concepts in geometry, serving as the basis for more complex shapes and figures.
Two lines that have a point in common are said to be intersecting lines. When they intersect, they share a specific coordinate point where they cross each other. For example, the lines described by the equations y = 2x + 1 and y = -x + 3 intersect at the point (2, 5). This common point is where both lines meet on a graph.
These lines do not share the same plane and can be described as skew.
Lines that are at 90 degrees from one another can be described as perpendicular.

There are three lines in the figure described. Two of the lines never meet, these are the parallel lines. The third line crosses the other lines, it is the "transversal" line. If the parallel lines are really line SEGMENTS then each can be bisected (cut into two equal lengths) This is what your description states.
