Best Answer

intersecting lines are alike because perpendicular lines have to intersect to be perpendicular.

2: They are the same because they touch another line so they are the same.

How are perpendicular lines and intersecting lines alike and how are they different?

Some intersecting lines are perpendicular lines.Take any old pair of intersecting lines. If the angles at the intersectionhappen to be 90 degree angles, then the lines are perpendicular lines.


How are perpendicular lines and intersecting lines alike How are they different?

They are alike because they both cross each other. They are different because perpendicular lines have to be a right angle while intersecting lines can be any kind of angle.


How are perpendicular lines and intersecting line alike?

Perpendicular lines are lines that intersect each other at 90 degrees or at right angles


How are perpendicular lines and intersecting lines alike and different?

they both have lines crossing each other which make angles. perpendicular lines make right angles while intersecting lines make other kinds


How are perpindicular lines alike to intersecting lines?

Perpendicular lines are lines that intersect at a right angle (90 degrees).


Can you draw a pair of intersecting lines that are perpendicular?

How are perpendicular lines different and Alike from intersecting lines?

Perpendicular lines are in shape of (most of the time) a plus sign (+) and intersecting lines speak for themselves: the lines intersect with one another. They are alike becuase they both have a vertex (when two or more lines meet; the center where the two or more lines meet). They may be different becuase a perpendicular line always has four right angles (or more), when intersecting lines can have various types of angles. Or to put it, perpendicular lines are a more specific type of intersecting line. -By Izzy; 6th grade; Content is 3rd to 4th grade basic geometry


Two intersecting lines but not perpendicular?

Non-perpendicular intersecting lines. There is no special name.


Draw two intersecting lines but not perpendicular?

How do perpendicular differ from intersecting lines?

Perpendicular lines are a subset of intersecting lines. The only difference is that perpendicular lines intersect at an angle of 90o, whereas intersecting lines can converge at any angle.


Can two lines be parellel perpendicular and intersecting at the same time?

No. If the lines are parallel they will never meet or intersect at any point. If the lines are perpendicular they do intersect, but perpendicular lines are a special case of intersecting lines. Perpendicular lines are exactly 90 degrees from each other. Intersecting lines do not haveto be perpendicular... but perpendicular lines are always intersecting.


Can a perpendicular line be a intersecting line?

Yes. Perpendicular lines are intersecting lines, but they have right angles.
