Yes - in common usage they are but they need not be.
If you are sitting in a cuboid room, facing a wall, then consider the line formed by the floor and the opposite wall, and the line formed by the walls behind you and one of the adjacent walls. These two lines are at right angles to one another but, because they are in different planes, they will not intersect.
Perpendicular lines are not intersecting. Perpendicular means to not cross.
Not necessarily. Lines can intersect at any angle. They are only perpendicular when they intersect at 90 degree angles.

Draw two intersecting lines but not perpendicular?
draw two intersecting lines that are not perpendicular
How are perpendicular lines and intersecting lines alike and how are they different?
Some intersecting lines are perpendicular lines.Take any old pair of intersecting lines. If the angles at the intersectionhappen to be 90 degree angles, then the lines are perpendicular lines.
Can a perpendicular line be a intersecting line?
Yes. Perpendicular lines are intersecting lines, but they have right angles.
How are perpendicular lines similar and different to intersecting lines?
Perpendicular lines are specific kinds of intersecting lines. They both cross paths. Intersecting lines can cross paths in any way, but perpendicular lines have to cross at right angles.
How is perpendicular lines similar to intersecting lines?
Perpendicular lines are lines that cross at right angles. Intersecting lines can cross at any angle.
Can you draw a pair of intersecting lines that are perpendicular?
a pair of intersecting lines that are perpendicular
Two intersecting lines but not perpendicular?
Non-perpendicular intersecting lines. There is no special name.
Draw two intersecting lines but not perpendicular?
draw two intersecting lines that are not perpendicular
How do perpendicular differ from intersecting lines?
Perpendicular lines are a subset of intersecting lines. The only difference is that perpendicular lines intersect at an angle of 90o, whereas intersecting lines can converge at any angle.

Can a perpendicular line be a intersecting line?
Yes. Perpendicular lines are intersecting lines, but they have right angles.
Can two lines be parellel perpendicular and intersecting at the same time?
No. If the lines are parallel they will never meet or intersect at any point. If the lines are perpendicular they do intersect, but perpendicular lines are a special case of intersecting lines. Perpendicular lines are exactly 90 degrees from each other. Intersecting lines do not haveto be perpendicular... but perpendicular lines are always intersecting.
Are intersecting lines that form right angle?
Intersecting lines that form a right angle are perpendicular lines.
What is the different of a perpendicular lines and intersecting lines?
The only difference between perpendicular lines and intersecting lines is that perpendicular lines create a right angle at the point of intersection.
What is similar about perpendicular lines and intersecting lines?
Perpendicular lines intersect.
Are intersecting lines perpendicular or not perpendicular?
Intersecting lines may or may not be perpendicular. If the angle of intersection between two intersecting lines is 90 degrees, then the two lines are perpendicular. Otherwise, the lines are not perpendicular. For example: A | | | B ----|----- | | Here, the lines A and B are intersecting. The angle between A and B is 90 degrees. Therefore, line A and line B are perpendicular to each other.
