Neither. They run paralevel with one another.

What are some examples of parallel lines and a pair of perpendicular lines?
Railroad tracks or the number 11 are parallel lines. A cross or a small t are perpendicular lines. Also the two ll's in the middle of parallel are parallel lines.
Examples for angles parallel lines perpendicular lines?
Real life example of parallel lines are railroad tracks and rows in a garden. Also the lines on a basketball court are parallel
Are the metal rails that make up train tracks an example of parallel lines intersecting lines or perpendicular lines?
On successful railways it has been found that parallel works the best.
Give some real examples for angles parallel lines perpendicular lines?
Some examples for parallel lines- railroad tracks, steps, buildings, paper, windows, ect. Some examples for perpendicular lines- stop sign, bridge, street intersection, driveway into a street, ect.
What is perpendicular and perallel?
Something which is perpendicular is at right angles an example would be that a tree growing straight out of the ground would be perpendicular to the ground. Things are parallel when they run along side each other always the same distance apart, an example would be railway tracks.
What is the difference between parallel lines and perpendicular lines?
Parallel lines never touch each other, they run side by side, like railroad tracks, or this equal sign = Perpendicular lines cross each other at 90 degrees, so it looks like a t or a plus sign, +
Are train tracks perpendicular?
Yes
Do railroad tracks present problems to a motorcyclist?
No real problem, but what we want to do is drive over them so that the tracks are perpendicular to our bikes, or at least as perpendicular as possible.
What would be the problem if railway tracks are not parallel lines?
If the tracks are not parallel, the wheels will not stay on the tracks; train wheels are spaced at a fixed width, or gauge, and that width cannot expand or contract to accommodate non-parallel tracks. Thus, if the tracks were non-parallel, the wheel would come off the track and cause a derailment.
Are railway tracks parallel?
Yes
Are train tracks parallel?
A regular set of tracks with two rails are always going to be parallel. If they weren't, the train would derail.
What is perpendicular lines what is parallel lines what is intersecting lines?
Perpendicular lines are lines that intersect at a 90-degree angle. They can be visualized as forming a right angle or "L" shape. Parallel lines, on the other hand, are lines that never intersect and always stay the same distance apart. They can be visualized as two train tracks that never meet. Intersecting lines are lines that cross or meet at a single point. They do not have to be perpendicular or parallel, and their intersection forms an angle other than 90 degrees.
