Best Answer

Assuming that by opersit is meant opposite, the answer is NONPARALLEL LINES.

If they are in the same plane then (and only then) they would be intersecting lines (lines that meet at some point in the plane). But if they are not in the same plane they need not meet even if they are not parallel. So the answer that they are intersecting lines is incomplete and therefore incorrect.

To visualise nonparallel lines that do not intersect, consider a room. Think of the [horizontal] line formed by the floor and the wall opposite you. Think of the [vertical] line formed by the wall behind you and the wall to your right. These two lines are not parallel, but they will not meet - ever.
