Parallel line segments are 2 line segments that are parallel. They never touch and they do not go on forever. Parallel lines do go on forever because lines go on forever. I think I'm right. Am I?
Yes, you are right. A line segment eventually ends. In fact, a segment has two endpoints. But parallel lines go on forever; they have no endpoints.Example: (arrows indicating they go on forever)_____________________ (these are parallel line segments)
What is the difference between perpendicular lines and perpendicular line segments?
Lines have no end (stretch on forever) Line segments start and end.
What is the greatest number of intersections that can occur between two lines?
Well...lines go in one direction forever,but LINE SEGMENTS are a whole different story.With line segments you can make as much intersections as you want but with lines,only 1.
What is the difference between lines and line segments?
A line goes on forever and never ends, on either side.A line segmentstops and has two end points.
Can parallel lines be line segments?
They can not be line segments on the same line, but they can both be line segments.

How are are arcs line segments?
Arcs are line segments because they do not go on forever. They only go part of the way around a circle
Definition for congruent line segments for geometry?
congruent line segments- line segments that have the same lengths.
What type of line goes on forever?
the type that go on forever are just called lines but the ones that end are segments
What the different between a line and a line segment?
Line segments have two ending points, while lines by proof and definition go on and on forever.
What is the difference of AB line and AB line segment?
The difference is that lines go on forever and line segments start at a certain point and ends at a certain point.
What is the difference between perpendicular lines and perpendicular line segments?
Lines have no end (stretch on forever) Line segments start and end.

What is the difference between lines and line segments?
A line goes on forever and never ends, on either side.A line segmentstops and has two end points.
What is the difference in line line segments and rays?
A line segment has a end point. A ray goes on forever until it hits something, like another ray.
In line segments and angles what is a ray or a line?
A line is a straight path that goes on forever in both directions. A ray is a straight path that goes on in one direction.
Can parallel lines be line segments?
They can not be line segments on the same line, but they can both be line segments.
