If A and B are vectors then AxB=ABsin(AB). If A and B are not zero then AxB is zero if and only if sin(AB)=0 meaning the angle between A and B is a multiple of 180 degrees, in other words parallel.

What is non-parallel forces?

Non-parallel forces are vector forces having an angle other than zero degrees or 180 degrees direction between them.


How do you prove a trapezoid is isoceles?

To prove a trapezoid is isosceles, you need to show that the legs (the non-parallel sides) are congruent. This can be done by demonstrating that the base angles opposite these sides are congruent. You can use the triangle congruence postulates or the properties of parallel lines and transversals to establish the equality of these angles.


How to you find a vector parallel to two given vectors?

I think you meant to ask for finding a perpendicular vector, rather than parallel. If that is the case, the cross product of two non-parallel vectors will produce a vector which is perpendicular to both of them, unless they are parallel, which the cross product = 0. (a zero vector)

How many equal sides does a trapezoid have?

A trapezium can have 0, 2 or 3 sides of equal length.0 equal sidesThis is the general state of a trapezium.2 equal sidesThe two parallel sides can never be equal.The two non-parallel sides can be equal. In this case, the trapezium is an isosceles trapezium.Or one of the parallel sides can be equal to one of the non-parallel sides. No special name.3 equal sidesThese would have to be the two non-parallel sides and one of the others. The trapezium is isosceles.

Can two lines be both non intersecting and non parallel?

no, if two lines are not parallel then the will eventually have to intersect.Alternate perspective:Yes, if two lines are non-parallel, they need not intersect in three dimensional space.
