Lines are one-dimensional objects but they can be in 2-dimensional - or even 20-dimensional) space.

What are one-dimensional figure and have infintie length?

Lines! Yes, they are one-dimensional. Points are zero dimensional, planes are two-dimensional, and prisms and such are three dimensional.


What is the difference between parallel lines and parallel planes?

Parallel lines are two 1-dimensional objects that do not meet. Parallel planes are two 2-dimensional objects that do not meet.


What plane is formed when two number lines intersect?

A two dimensional plane.


How can a list of strings be stored within a two dimensional array?

Think of the strings as writing on lines of paper. Paper is a two dimensional surface. The computer array is the equivalent of the two dimensional paper.


How many lines are in a two dimensional shape?

As many or as few as you like.


Can a line be two-dimensional?

In that case, it wouldn't be called a "line".From superscot85: No, all lines are one-dimensional, just as all points are zero-dimensional.


Thick lines define the outer boundaries of a two dimensional form?

Not necessarily.


What figure is two dimensional and have infinite length?

There are two two-dimensional figure with an infinite length. They are rays, and lines.


When are skew lines coplanar?

Never! Coplanar means that the two lines lie in the same two-dimensional plane. The only way that two lines do not intersect in two-dimensional space is if they are parallel. And by definition, skew lines are not allowed to be parallel, either.So essentially there is no such thing as skew lines that only occupy two dimensions. Skew lines must be in three dimensions or higher in order to (1) not intersect and (2) not be parallel with each other.


How do you know if two lines are intersecting lines with out graphing?

For two dimensional lines: Get the formulas for the two lines into a format so that you can evaluate the slope. If the slopes are different, then they will intersect. If the slopes are the same, then you have two parallel lines, or possibly, the two equations describe the same line.


Can two lines be both non intersecting and non parallel?

no, if two lines are not parallel then the will eventually have to intersect.Alternate perspective:Yes, if two lines are non-parallel, they need not intersect in three dimensional space.


When there is a transversal of two lines the three lines are coplanar?

Normally, yes. A transversal contemplates crossing two (normally parallel) lines in conversations about two dimensional space and the relationship of certain angles. If you are talking about three dimensions, all bets are off. Two skewed lines in three dimensional space could would have a line that connects them but none of them would be coplanar.
