What is the difference between perpendicular lines and perpendicular line segments?
Lines have no end (stretch on forever) Line segments start and end.
What is the distance between 2 parallel lines measured along a perpendicular to the 2 lines?
The shortest distance between two paralle lines is the length of the line that is perpendicular to both line and intersects both.
What is the difference between a perpendicular and parallel line?
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 (=)
Can a perpendicular line be a intersecting line?
Yes. Perpendicular lines are intersecting lines, but they have right angles.
What is a perpendiccular line?
"Perpendicular" describes the relationship between two lines. A single line can't be 'perpendicular'.Two lines are perpendicular if1). they cross each other2). at the place where they cross, they form 90-degree angles
