No, skew lines are not perpendicular. Perpendicular lines intersect at an angle of ninety degrees, while skew lines never intersect (think in three dimensions or higher).

Are two lines skew to the same line are skew to each other?
Yes, but not all of them, some of them are either parallel or perpendicular.
Will the perpendicular bisectors of a right triangle always intersect?
yes, because perpendicular lines always intersect. all lines intersect unless they are parallel or on separate planes (skew)
Can two intersecting diagonal lines be perpendicular?
Obviously it can.The type of lines that are perpendicular but do not intersect are known as 'Skew' lines. These can be better understood by using vectors in three-dimensional.I have reason to think that you yourself, do not know what your asking for and therefore I must tell you this. 90degrees= perpendicular.
Do lines that skew intersect?
No. Skew lines do not intersect
Is a y a parallel line?
No, "y" is not a parallel line because the lines are not perpendicular to each other. "Y" is a skew line.
Is it possible for two skew lines to be perpendicular?
perpendicular lines are lines that MEET at right angles (90 degrees). Skew lines are lines that dont meet at all. Even though the gradients of two skew lines can multiply to be -1 (a property of perpendicular lines) They will not really be perpendicular as they don't accually meet. This can occur when the lines are in different planes.
Are two lines skew to the same line are skew to each other?
Yes, but not all of them, some of them are either parallel or perpendicular.
What figures intersect but are not perpendicular?
Any lines or curves that are mutually skew.Any lines or curves that are mutually skew.Any lines or curves that are mutually skew.Any lines or curves that are mutually skew.
Will the perpendicular bisectors of a right triangle always intersect?
yes, because perpendicular lines always intersect. all lines intersect unless they are parallel or on separate planes (skew)
Can segments and rays be skew lines if they lie in skew lines?
They can be, and are, "skew". If they are not lines, they cannot be "skew lines".

No, "y" is not a parallel line because the lines are not perpendicular to each other. "Y" is a skew line.
Do lines that skew intersect?
No. Skew lines do not intersect
Do skew lines always intersect?
Skew lines never intersect. If two lines intersect, then they are known as "intersecting lines", not skew lines.
What are the sixth grade geometry terms?
Line, line segment, point, skew lines, intersecting lines, perpendicular lines, that's the ones that i can think of off the top of my head
Line n is perpendicular to line m. Line l is perpendicular to line m. Is it possible for line n and line l to be skew?
No. It's impossible. There's a corollary that states: If two lines are perpendicular to the same line, then the two lines are parallel.
What are skew lines?
skew lines are noncoplanar lines, which means they aren't parallel and they also don't intersect skew lines do not intersect and are not coplanar
