Question

The definition of parallel lines requires the terms line and plane while the definition of perpendicular lines requires the undefined terms of line and point. What characteristics of these geometric figures create the different requirements

Answer 1

I didnt know prependicular lines were a geometric shape...

Answer 2

Answer:

Parallel lines never intersect, but they must be in the same plane. The definition does not require the undefined term point, but it does require plane. Because they intersect, perpendicular lines must be coplanar; consequently, plane is not required in the definition.

What did you include in your response? Check all that apply.

Parallel lines do not intersect.

Parallel lines must be coplanar.

Perpendicular lines intersect at one point.

Perpendicular lines intersect  so plane is not required in the definition.
