Do parallel lines meet at a 30 degree angle?
No, in Euclidean geometry they do not meet.
Why aren't skew lines parallel?
Because of the way parallel lines are defined. Parallel lines never meet, but to qualify as parallel lines, additional conditions may apply. From Wikipedia: "Two lines in a plane that do not intersect or meet are called parallel lines." Emphasis added.
Are a vertical line and a horizontal line parallel or perpendicular?
Perpendicular is when a line is at a right angle to another. Parallel lines are side by side and even if they were to go on to infinity, would never meet. Therefore the answer is perpendicular.
Lines that meet at a 90 angle?
Perpendicular
Lines that meet to form a right angle are called?
lines that meet to form a right angle are called? I believe this line is known as a perpendicular line :)
Do parallel lines meet at a right angle?
No, parallel lines do not meet at a right angle. In theory, parallel lines never meet. In practice, parallel lines on earth could meet at the North Pole and/or the South Pole. Perpendicular lines meet at a right angle.
What is the angle formed between two parallel lines?
An angle is formed where two lines meet. Parallel lines do not meet. Therefore they do not form an angle. So there is no angle to have a name. So no name.
How many parallel lines does a right angle have?
A right angle has no parallel lines, but it does have perpendicular lines that meet at right angles.
How many angles does parallel have?
Parallel lines do not meet and so cannot form an angle.
In geometry what shape has ends that do not meet?
An angle has lines that meet at the angle end, but that stretch apart at the other end. Parallel lines are like railway lines. They go on and on and never meet.
Do parallel lines meet at a 30 degree angle?
No, in Euclidean geometry they do not meet.
Do parallel lines meet at 30 angle?
No because parallel lines remain equal distance apart and never intersect with each other.
How many parallel and perpendicular lines are they in a right angle triangle?
There are no parallel lines in any triangle but a right angle triangle has perpendicular line that meet each other at 90 degrees.
Is perpendicular and parallel the same?
No, perpendicular lines are lines which intersect (cross each other/meet) and a 90 degree angle, while parallel lines a lines which run along side each other and will never intersect/meet.
Will perpendicular lines ever meet?
By definition, perpendicular lines are those which meet in a right angle. So, yes, they have to meet in order to be "perpendicular". Parallel lines may, or may not, meet, depending on how you choose your axioms. In Euclidean geometry, parallel lines never meet. In certain types of non-Euclidean geometry, they can meet.
Does a right triange have parallel lines?
No. A triangle can never have parallel lines. Parallel lines run alongside each other, so that if they continued forever, they would never meet, such as the top and bottom of a square. All lines meet in a triangle. A right triangle is distinguished by having one 90 degree angle (also known as a right angle).
Where do parallel lines meet?
Parallel lines meet in infinity(they don't meet at all)
