Observe the following figure of two non-intersecting, parallel lines 'a' and 'b' which show a perpendicular distance denoted by 'c' and 'd'. The following points list the properties of non-intersecting lines which help us to identify them easily. Example 1: With respect to intersecting and non-intersecting lines, answer the following questions based on the figure given below. They are non-intersecting, parallel lines.
Hence, these are non-intersecting lines. Example 2: Identify the pair of lines given below as intersecting or non-intersecting lines. According to the direction of lines, if such lines are extended further, they will meet at one point. Therefore, the given pair of lines are intersecting lines. Example 3: Give any two real-life examples of intersecting and non-intersecting lines. Crossroads: When two straight roads meet at a common point they form intersecting lines.
Scissors: A pair of scissors has two arms and both the arms form intersecting lines. The Rails of Railway Track: The rails of a railway track that are parallel to each other are non-intersecting lines. When two or more lines cross each other in a plane, they are known as intersecting lines. When intersecting lines cross each other, there is no defined angle at which they meet, it can be any angle.
Parallel lines remain the same distance apart at all times. Figure 3 Parallel lines. Previous Special Angles. Next Parallel and Perpendicular Planes.
