If two lines are parallel are they congruent?
First, lines and rays cannot be congruent because they do not have both end points defined. Not having an end point define means we cannot talk about their length so they can't be congruent. Line segments, however, can be congruent. Congruent line segments NEED NOT be parallel.Furthermore, if two line segments are parallel, that does not mean they are congruent since parallel line segments may not have the same length.Congruent line segments would be ones that are the same length.
Do intersecting lines form two pairs of congruent angles?
yes, intersecting lines form two pairs of congruent angles
If two intersecting lines form congruent adjacent angles then the lines are perpendicular?
Yes.
If two lines are intersected by a transversal so that the alternate exterior angles are congruent, then the lines are perpendicular.?
false
Three or more lines passing through the same point?
Congruent
Why can lines not be congruent?
Let's start with the definition. Definition: Line segments are congruent if they have the same length So lines and rays would be congruent if they had the same length. However, Rays and lines cannot be congruent because they do not have both end points defined, and so have no definite length. It know it's a LONG story, the the bottom LINE is they have no length so they can't be congruent.
Are all lines on octagon congruent?
Yes, they all are congruent and have 4 lines of symmetry
Are two segments with the same length congruent?
When applied to two line segments, they are said to be congruent if they are both exactly the same length, but they need not be parallel to each other (they can also bisect each other). Thickness does not matter as lines have no thickness (thickness only applies to shapes). However, it should be noted that rays and lines are not congruent as their lengths are infinite. Rays have no defined end point while lines have neither a start nor an end point defined. Line segments always have both a start and an end point defined.

What are congruent sides?
sides (no, not angles, SIDES, as in LINES,) that are the same length and thickness. Just like congruent shapes, but with lines. hope you find lots of congruent lines! :)
How many pairs of congruent lines are in a parallelogram?
A parallelogram has two pairs of opposite congruent lines
How many parallel and congruent sides are cone?
O par ell lines and no congruent lines
If two lines intersect to form adjacent congruent angles then the lines are?
That is an important theorem in geometry: if two lines intersect to form adjacent congruent angles, then the lines are perpendicular. Those congruent angles would be right angles.
What is the converse of parallel lines conjecture?
If two lines are cut by a transversal to form pairs of congruent corresponding angles, congruent alternate interior angles, or congruent alternate exterior angles, then the lines are parallel.
How many diagonal lines are there in a heptagon?
A heptagon has 4 diagonal lines and 7 sides and it has 2 congruent diagonal lines and 2 congruent triangles
If two lines are cut by a transversal are the corresponding angles congruent?
No. Angles are not congruent. (Triangles may be congruent.)
Does a rectangle have congruent lines?
Rectangles do not have congruent lines. A square can always be called a rectangle. But a rectangle can't always be a square.
