Do spheres have skew lines?
Yes, it is possible to draw lines on the surface of a sphere that are neither parallel nor intersecting.
Is it possible to find two lines on a plane which are neither parallel nor intersecting?
No. Lines are infinite, so if they are not parallel, they have to intersect at some point on the plane.
Lines in different planes that are neither parallel nor intersecting?
Skew Lines. :)
What are Lines that lie in different planes that are neither parallel nor intersecting?
the answer would have to be skew
If two lines are not coplanar then they are neither intersecting nor parallel?
CorrectParallel lines as well as intersecting lines must be coplanar (in Euclidean geometry not quite sure about hyperbolic geometry...).Lines in space which neither are coplanar nor intersecting are called "skew"
Do skew lines intersect?
SKEW LINES are neither parallel nor intersecting.
Decide whether the lines given are parallel perpendicular or neither The line through 5 -9 and -8 5 are they parallel perpendicular or neither?
Parallel
Is a cylinder considered to be a 3 dimensional figure with 2 parallel bases and not a polygon?
yes - one criterion of a polygon is being made up of only straight lines. polygons are also 2-dimensional. a cylinder is neither of these two things, as it is 3-dimensional (has length, width, and depth) and its two bases are circles, which are curved.
Is a circle parallel or perpendicular?
No, neither.
Are grapes round or oval?
Neither. An oval is a 2-dimensional shape. Grapes are 3-dimensional.
When are two lines in intersecting planes skew?
Each line can either intersect the edge which is common to the two planes at some point or be parallel to it. If the two lines intersect the edge, but at different points, then the lines are skew. If only one of the lines intersects the edge, then again the lines are skew. If neither of them intersect, then the two lines are parallel to the same edge and so they are parallel to one another so not skew.
Can oblique lines be parallel?
No, oblique lines are neither parallel nor perpendicular
