Perpendicular lines are two lines that intersect at a right angle, measuring 90 degrees. In a two-dimensional Cartesian coordinate system, if one line has a slope of ( m ), the other line will have a slope of ( -\frac{1}{m} ). This relationship ensures that they are orthogonal to each other. Perpendicular lines are often represented in various geometric contexts, highlighting their significance in construction and design.

PERPENDICULAR
perpendicular.
Octagons have no perpendicular lines.
= 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.

Lines that intersect at 90 degrees are perpendicular lines
A rhombus has parallel lines but no perpendicular lines.
Octagons have no perpendicular lines.
I believe they do, and they have 2 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.
The only difference between perpendicular lines and intersecting lines is that perpendicular lines create a right angle at the point of intersection.
