They are the x and y axes on the Cartesian plane that intersect each at right angles at the point of origin which is (0, 0)
These lines are perpendicular: _|
Lines that aren't perpendicular

Well, they are used for graphing information on graphs and are used on maps.
= parallel + perpendicular As such no, perpendicular lines do not naturally have parallel lines. However...connect the lines in the symbols below. ++ ++ And you'll have 4 perpendicular lines, and 4 parallel lines.
Perpendicular lines intersect.

PERPENDICULAR
Lines that intersect at 90 degrees are perpendicular lines
A rhombus has parallel lines but no perpendicular lines.
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.
