Intersecting Lines. Two lines next to each other but go straight and never meet are called parallel lines. Perpendicular is when two lines cross right into the middle and makes 4 right angles (90 degrees).

How many types of straight line?

There are several types of straight lines based on their orientation and relationship to other lines. The main types include horizontal lines, which run parallel to the x-axis; vertical lines, which run parallel to the y-axis; and diagonal lines, which have a slope and can rise or fall. Additionally, lines can be classified as parallel (never intersecting), perpendicular (intersecting at right angles), or intersecting (crossing at any angle).

What are lines that are not parallel or perpendicular?

In two dimensions the lines would be intersecting lines not perpendicular (I believe this is called transversal, see related link). If you are in three dimensions they would be skew lines, like to jets crossing above you that don't hit each other. One is higher than the other.
