What are two lines in two different planes that do not intersect called?
They may be either parallel or skew.
Where do two planes intersect?
In geometry, two planes intersect in a line. The only time this is not true is if the two planes are parallel to each other.
Do Two planes always intersect in a line?
Some planes are parallel and don't intersect at all. Those that do intersect (and that are not coincident, i.e. the same plane) intersect in a line.
Can two lines never intersect but not be parallel?
If the lines are in the same plane and never intersect they are always parallel. Two line can not intersect and be parallel if they are in different planes though. Take a cube for example, if you have one Sid of it and take the edge and then go to the opposite side and make a horizontal line they will never intersect but are also not parallel.
Can exactly two planes intersect and the third plane does not intersect the other two?
We don't think so. We reasoned it out like this: -- Two planes either intersect or else they're parallel. -- If two planes intersect, then they're not parallel. -- In order for the third one to avoid intersecting either of the first two, it would have to be parallel to both of them. But if they're not parallel to each other, then that's not possible. If the third plane is parallel to one of the first two, then it's not parallel to the other one, and it must intersect the one that it's not parallel to.
What are planes that never intersect are called?
Those are parallel planes.
What are two lines in two different planes that do not intersect called?
They may be either parallel or skew.
Lines that lie in different planes and never intersect are called?
They're either parallel lines or skew lines.
What are two planes that do not intersect?
parallel planes
What are planes that do not intersect?
parallel
What is the name of two lines in different planes that do not intersect and are not parallel?
skew lines
Non-intersecting lines in different planes are?
They are called skew lines. Explanation: In 3 space, parallel lines must never intersect AND must be in the same plane. If they fail to intersect and are in different planes we call them skew lines.
Can two planes that do not intersect be parallel?
No. By definition, planes can be extended in all directions to infinity. If they are not parallel, they will intersect somewhere.
Do parallel planes ever intersect?
No
What kinds of planes do not intersect?
Parallel
Are Two planes parallel to a line parallel?
No. Consider two adjacent faces on a cuboid. Both planes are parallel to the edge at which the intersect. But the fact that they do intersect illustrates that they are not parallel.
Can you have skew planes?
No, they are either parallel, or they intersect
