Perpendicular is straight up and down, having a sharp pitch or slope. It is a style of English Gothic Architecture. So the term would refer to the 'walls' rather than the roof. Parallel in Geometry are straight lines in the same plane, but never meeting. Building may be parallel to each other. Neither word applies

Do transverse waves move perpendicular or parallel to the direction of the wave?
They move perpendicular to the direction they transfer
How did Frank Lloyd Wright use parallel and perpendicular line in his window designs?
The use of parallel and perpendicular lines was most evident in his windows. Check out the Ennis house created in 1924 in Los Angels. The windows and architecture are great!
Why does the equator receives more of the suns energy?
The light at the equator hits the earth perpendicular to the surface to the earth. The further you are from the equator, the light comes in at an angle closer and closer to parallel. The closer to parallel the light comes in at, the more of it is reflected, so it receives less energy than the perpendicular light at the equator.
Meaning of the different kinds of lines?
They are: -skew lines -parallel lines -intersecting lines -straight lines -zigzag lines -dotted lines -solid lines -curved lines -perpendicular lines
What are the 10 principles of orthographic projection?
1. Top view is directly over the front view. 2. Side view is inline horizontally with either top view or front view. 3. A line parallel to a plane of projection will be projected on that plane as a line. 4. A surface parallel to a plane of projection will be projected on that plane 5. A line perpendicular to a plane of projection will be projected on that plane as a point. 6. A surface perpendicular to a plane of projection will be projected on that plane as line.
Are parallel and perpendicular opposites?
Yes, parallel and perpendicular are opposites.
Does a rhombus have parallel and perpendicular sides?
It has parallel sides, but not perpendicular.
What is Perpendicular and Parallel?
Perpendicular is when two lines cross... Parallel is when two lines never meet.... _____________ _____________ = PARALLEL LINES If they cross they are perpendicular, if they don't, they are parallel.
Does perpendicular have parallel lines?
= parallel + perpendicular As such no, perpendicular lines do not naturally have parallel lines. However...connect the lines in the symbols below. ++ ++ And you'll have 4 perpendicular lines, and 4 parallel lines.
Are latitude lines parallel or perpendicular?
Parallel. Latitude and longitude are perpendicular.
Is a octagon parallel or perpendicular?
Perpendicular
Can two lines intersect and be perpendicular and parallel?
No, they can't. Perpendicular and parallel are antonyms.
What is not a characteristic of of a perpendicular bisector?
is parallel-apex
Can two lines be parallel and perpendicular at the same time?
no, because parallel is opposite to perpendicular
Does a rhombus have perpendicular lines and parallel lines?
Perpendicular: No Parallel: Yes, two pairs.
Why is it important to know the difference between parallel vs perpendicular?
perpendicular cross parallel do not
CAN Perpendicular lines can be parallel?
No, perpendicular lines intersect eachother at 90 degree angles. Parallel lines never intersect. So perpendicular lines will never be parallel.
