In hyperbolic geometry how many lines are there parallel to a given line through a given point?
infinitely many
Lines on a hyperbolic plane are considered to be?
Hyperbolic geometry is a beautiful example of non-Euclidean geometry. One feature of Euclidean geometry is the parallel postulate. This says that give a line and a point not on that line, there is exactly one line going through the point which is parallel to the line. (That is to say, that does NOT intersect the line) This does not hold in the hyperbolic plane where we can have many lines through a point parallel to a line. But then we must wonder, what do lines look like in the hyperbolic plane? Lines in the hyperbolic plane will either appear as lines perpendicular to the edge of the half-plane or as circles whose centers lie on the edge of the half-plane
Definition of alternate angles?
Alternate angles are where two parallel lines have a line through them.
Tell the difference between transversal lines and parallel lines?
The transversal is the line that cuts the parallel line.
what is parallel line?
A parallel line is two lines along the same path in the same direction. Also parallel lines always have to be straight Some examples of parallel lines are below. \ | | / / = ll
How do you negate the euclidean parallel postulate?
Assume there are no lines through a given point that is parallel to a given line or assume that there are many lines through a given point that are parallel to a given line. There exist a line l and a point P not on l such that either there is no line m parallel to l through P or there are two distinct lines m and n parallel to l through P.
How many lines are parallel to a given line through a given point?
zero
What line intersect through parallel lines?
No line can intersect parallel lines. Parallel lines by definition never intersect.
In hyperbolic geometry how many lines are there parallel to a given line through a given point?
infinitely many
What are parallel lines and transverse lines equal to in an equation?
parallel lines are those line which does not have any intersecting point.
What does not have a point of intersection?
Two parallel lines, a plane and a line in a plane parallel to it.
What is a line which cuts parallel line?
The line that cuts a parallel line is called a TRANSVERSAL. When you have parallel lines and you want to show like corresponding, vertical, ect.... then the line that cut through the parallel lines is a TRANSVERSAL
What difference between parallel and non parallel line in drawings?
Non-parallel lines intersect at some point, parallel lines don't.
Which statement is trueJax drew a line through point A and point B. Chris also drew a line through the two points.?
The two lines are identical.

What line passes through 2 parallel lines?
Any line that is not parallel to the given lines. The transversal that contains the shortest distance between the two parallel lines, is perpendicular to them.
Is a line parallel to itself?
Two lines are not parallel if they have exactly one point in common; otherwise they are parallel. So this means a line is parallel to itself!
