Best Answer

no because perpendicular lines meet and form a right angle and as a cylinder is round, it can't.

the only perpendicular line you can make on a cylinder is a line that starts at one end or the other and is perpendicular to the end of the cylinder and therefore runs along the entirety of the side

Perpendicular lines are lines that cross at right angles. Intersecting lines can cross at any angle.


Are any two pairs of perpendicular lines coplanar?

Two lines that are perpendicular to the same plane are coplanar. This means that they lay on the same plane.


How do perpendicular differ from intersecting lines?

Perpendicular lines are a subset of intersecting lines. The only difference is that perpendicular lines intersect at an angle of 90o, whereas intersecting lines can converge at any angle.

How are perpendicular lines and intersecting lines alike and how are they different?

Some intersecting lines are perpendicular lines.Take any old pair of intersecting lines. If the angles at the intersectionhappen to be 90 degree angles, then the lines are perpendicular lines.


Can two lines be parellel perpendicular and intersecting at the same time?

No. If the lines are parallel they will never meet or intersect at any point. If the lines are perpendicular they do intersect, but perpendicular lines are a special case of intersecting lines. Perpendicular lines are exactly 90 degrees from each other. Intersecting lines do not haveto be perpendicular... but perpendicular lines are always intersecting.
