A perpendicular line is a line that creates two 90 degree angles at the line, segment, etc. that it intersects. Parallel lines are two lines that never intersect.
Perpendicular lines cross at right angles (+)
Parallel lines will never meet, no matter how far they are extended (=)

Is 2x equals y plus 8 a parallel line or a perpendicular line?
One single line is never parallel or perpendicular. Those words tell you somethingabout the relationship between two lines.
Is -x plus 2y equals 6 a parallel line or a perpendicular line?
One single line is never parallel or perpendicular. Those words tell you somethingabout the relationship between two lines.
What is the relation between two lines perpendicular to the same line?
They're parallel.
How do you construct a parallel line using a perpendicular line?
Start with a line, L1. Draw a line perpendicular to it, L2. Next draw a line perpendicular to L2, but not the same as L1. This last line will be parallel to L1.
Is a line which intersects two parallel lines?
No they are perpendicular if the intersect at a right angle. + is perpendicular, = is parallel
What is the difference between parallel and perpendicular line on rectangle?
The difference between a perpendicular line and a parallel line is that a perpendicular line crosses or joins, while a parallel line doesn't touch at all.
Line l is parallel to line m line l is perpendicular to line p what conclusions can be drawn about the relationship between lines m and p?
Lines are parallel if they are perpendicular to the same line. Since the lines m and l are parallel (given), and the line l is perpendicular to the line p (given), then the lines m and p are perpendicular (the conclusion).

What is not a characteristic of of a perpendicular bisector?
is parallel-apex
What is the relation between two lines perpendicular to the same line?
They're parallel.
If one of two parallel lines is perpendicular to another line is the other of the two lines parallel to the third line?
since one parallel lines is perpendicular to another line, the other parallel line is perpendicular to the line as well. so the two would not be parallel, only the original two.
How do you construct a parallel line using a perpendicular line?
Start with a line, L1. Draw a line perpendicular to it, L2. Next draw a line perpendicular to L2, but not the same as L1. This last line will be parallel to L1.
How do you find the shortest distance between two parallel lines?
The shortest distance between 2 parallel lines is a perpendicular drawn between 2 parallel lines the diagram shows it clearly 1 parallel line ------------------------------------|-------------------------------------------------------------------- | | | the vertical line is the shortest distance | | ------------------------------------|------------------------------------------------------------------- 2nd parallel line
What are the difference between perpendicular lines and a perpendicular bisector?
A perpendicular bisector goes through the median of the line while a perpendicular line can be anywhere on the line as long as it is at a 90 degree angle.
What is perpendicular line?
A sole line can't be perpendicular. To be perpendicular, a line has to meet with another line, to form right angles on either side. Perpendicular is the exact opposite of parallel. Parallel: = Perpendicular: -|
