Answer: No

Step-by-step explanation: First, we need to understand that parallel lines are coplanar lines that do not intersect. On the other hand, perpendicular lines are lines that intersect at a right angle.

However, lines can't be both parallel and perpendicular because they either intersect each other at a right angle or never intersect.

So no, two lines can't be both parallel and perpendicular.

After 50 soccer games, the ratio of wins to losses is 3:7. How many games did the team win? Explain how you found your answer

zalisa [80]

Answer:The team won 15 games

Step-by-step explanation:

Given no of soccer games =50

Ratio of wins to losses =3:7

Let no of wins = $3x$

and no of losses = $7x$

Now

$3x+7x=50$

$10x=50$

Dividing both sides by 10

x=5

So no of wins =3x = $3\times5$

=15

We found the answer as 10 parts equals 50

So 3 parts equals 15

Mum bought a litre of orange juice. She filled 5 glasses and had 1/5 of a litre left. How much was in each glass?

avanturin [10]

1/5 of a litre is 0.2 litres
1 litre minus 0.2 litres is 0.8 litres so
0.8 divided by 5 (glasses) is 0.16 litres in each glass

Answer:

<u>Use slope formula</u>

m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)
m = (-2 - 6)/(3 - 7) = -8 / -4 = 2
m = 2

Angles 2 and 6 are on the corresponding sides of the parallel lines, hence are corresponding angle

<u>Correct option is </u>

A. Corresponding

Congruent triangles have congruent corresponding parts

ΔABC ≅ Δ GHI
AB≅GH
AB = GH = 13

<u>Correct choice is</u>

B. 13

Option b is correct for any line and doesn't make the lines parallel. The rest of the options are correct for parallel lines.

<u>Correct option is the last one:</u>

a, c & d
