Question

:) Which of the following is true for the parallel lines?
a) They intersect each other
b) distance between them remains the same
c) they are perpendicular to each other​

Answer 1

"b) distance between them remains the same" is true for the parallel lines

Explanation for correct option

• b) distance between them remains the same is true for parallel lines because parallel lines are defined as lines having 0 or 180 degrees angle between them.

• See parallel lines below

• Hence, it is evident that the distance between them will always remain the same.

Explanation for incorrect option

• a) They intersect each other is incorrect because parallel lines never intersect each other because the distance between them always remain same.

Explanation for incorrect option

• c) they are perpendicular to each other is incorrect because parallel lines are the exact opposite of perpendicular lines.

• Perpendicular lines have an angle of 90 degrees.
