Are lines that lie in parallel lines always parallel?
That sounds to us like a very likely "yes" .
Why there are markings of two parallel white lines and yellow lines on roads?
(in the US) They indicate a no passing zone. The white lines indicate multiple lanes of travel in the same direction, while the yellow lines indicate opposing lanes of travel.
Do all trapeziums have diagonals of equal length?
No. Even in the non-US use of the term (a quadrilateral with at least one set of parallel lines), the lengths of the parallel lines may not be the same, and/or the angles formed by each adjacent side may be different (as in a rhomboid), resulting in diagonals of extremely different lengths.Only in rectangles are diagonals "always" of equal length.
Which is a quadlirateral that has one pair of parallel and a pair that's not parallel?
A trapezium (US: trapezoid).
How many pairs of equal angles does a trapezium have?
It may have none. A trapezium (US) has no parallel sides. A trapezoid (US, known elsewhere as a trapezium) has one side of parallel sides.
Are lines that lie in parallel lines always parallel?
That sounds to us like a very likely "yes" .
How do parallel time lines help us understand history?
=So as you see ,l=
What is a sentence with lines?
lines between us were clear. We never crossed them.
Why there are markings of two parallel white lines and yellow lines on roads?
(in the US) They indicate a no passing zone. The white lines indicate multiple lanes of travel in the same direction, while the yellow lines indicate opposing lanes of travel.
Why are isotherms generally parallel across the US?
Isotherms connect points of equal temperature on a weather map. The lines of isotherms naturally run parallel to each other. Their spacing indicates temperature variance.
What latitudes are parallel?
All lines of latitude are parallel to each other. The equator is the line of latitude at 0 degrees. Lines of latitude in the northern hemisphere have a positive latitude or are designated with "N" for North. Likewise, lines latitude in the southern hemisphere have a negative latitude or are designated with "S" for South.For example, the continental US (not including Hawaii and Alaska) is contained within the lines of latitude at 25 N and 50 N.
What does parellel mean when you are talking about geography?
In geography, parallel refers to imaginary lines that run east-west around the Earth, also known as latitudes. These lines are equally spaced and measure the distance north or south of the equator. Each parallel is designated by a degree measurement.
How do you draw a quadrilateral with 1 pair of parallel sides?
A quadrilateral that is not a parallelogram (two sets of parallel sides) may be a trapezoid or a trapezium (US terms). To draw a trapezium (irregular quadrilateral), draw two parallel lines and connect them with unequal lines at non-congruent angles. If you make the angles opposite and congruent, you have drawn a trapezoid, which looks like a small stepstool with a top smaller than the base. If you make the connecting lines of equal length, you have drawn a trapezoid or parallelogram.
Can you name all the cities in the US?
No, it would be impossible to name all the cities in the US.
What is also known as parallels?
Lines of latitude are also known as parallels as they circle the Earth parallel to the equator. They help us measure distances north or south of the equator.
Do all trapeziums have diagonals of equal length?
No. Even in the non-US use of the term (a quadrilateral with at least one set of parallel lines), the lengths of the parallel lines may not be the same, and/or the angles formed by each adjacent side may be different (as in a rhomboid), resulting in diagonals of extremely different lengths.Only in rectangles are diagonals "always" of equal length.
What effect does a shift in population have on US politics?
Population shifts in US cities/towns can change voter district lines (redistricting). This can shift the political "leaning" of an entire area or of the entire state.
