Can you arrange line in a plane so they're perpendicular but don't intersect?
NO. Perpendicular lines in the same plane alwaysinthersect.
What are lines that lie in the same plane and intersect at right angles?
Perpendicular lines.
Two lines in the same plane that intersect at a right angle are?
perpendicular lines.
How are parallel lines perpendicular to the same line?
If you have two parallel lines, then they have the same slope. If you have another line, in the same plane as the first two lines, and it is not parallel to them, then the angle of intersection with the first line will be the same as the angle of intersection with the second line. If this angle is 90°, then the third line is perpendicular to the first line and also to the second line. For an example, think of a rectangle. Two opposite sides are parallel. Now pick one of the 3rd or 4th sides. Each of these sides is perpendicular to both the first side and the second side.
In a plane if two lines are perpendicular to the same line then are they parallel to each other?
So long as all three lines are in the same plane, yes.
Do two perpendicular lines intersect?
yes... In fact, any two lines on the same plane that are not parallel will share a point of intersection.
Are any two pairs of perpendicular lines coplanar?
Two lines that are perpendicular to the same plane are coplanar. This means that they lay on the same plane.
In a plane if two lines are perpendicular to the same line then they are parallel to each other?
Yes they are. It's a postulate: In a plane two lines perpendicular to the same line are parallel.

If two different lines are perpendicular to the same plane, they are?
Parallel.Parallel.Parallel.Parallel.
In a plane if two lines are perpendicular to the same line then are they parallel to each other?
So long as all three lines are in the same plane, yes.
Is the intersection of a line a point?
The intersection of two lines is always a point or the line itself. The intersection of a line with plane also the same as above.
Which angle will perpendicular lines on the same plane ever touch?
yes perpendicular lines are at right angles to each other. Therefore they have to touch eventually
Can perpendicular lines be intersecting lines?
In Euclidean plane geometry, two lines which are perpendicular not only can but must intersect. (I believe the same is true for elliptic geometry and hyperbolic geometry.)
