How are perpindicular lines similar to intersecting lines?

A perpendicular line is a type of intersecting line that crosses the other line at a right angle.


What is the difference between perpindicular and intersecting lines?

Intersecting lines can cross at any angle. Perpendicular lines cross or meet at 90 degrees only.


How are intersecting lines alike to perpendicular lines?

intersecting lines are alike because perpendicular lines have to intersect to be perpendicular. 2: They are the same because they touch another line so they are the same.


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.


The measure of the angle formed by two intersecting perpindicular lines is 90 degrees?

Actually there are 4 angles formed by 2 intersecting lines, and as long as the lines are PERPENDICULAR, the angles are all right angles, 90 degree each.


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

They are alike because they both cross each other. They are different because perpendicular lines have to be a right angle while intersecting lines can be any kind of angle.


How are perpendicular lines and intersecting lines alike and different?

they both have lines crossing each other which make angles. perpendicular lines make right angles while intersecting lines make other kinds


How are perpendicular lines and intersecting line alike?

Perpendicular lines are lines that intersect each other at 90 degrees or at right angles


How are perpendicular lines different and Alike from intersecting lines?

Perpendicular lines are in shape of (most of the time) a plus sign (+) and intersecting lines speak for themselves: the lines intersect with one another. They are alike becuase they both have a vertex (when two or more lines meet; the center where the two or more lines meet). They may be different becuase a perpendicular line always has four right angles (or more), when intersecting lines can have various types of angles. Or to put it, perpendicular lines are a more specific type of intersecting line. -By Izzy; 6th grade; Content is 3rd to 4th grade basic geometry
