Question

consider the diagram. lines ac and rs can best be described as intersecting. parallel. perpendicular. skew.

Explanation:

• Intersecting lines meet at a point. From the diagram, lines \(AC\) and \(RS\) do not meet.
• Parallel lines are in the same plane and never meet. But \(AC\) and \(RS\) are not in the same plane.
• Perpendicular lines intersect at a right - angle (\(90^{\circ}\)). Since they don't intersect, they can't be perpendicular.
• Skew lines are non - parallel, non - intersecting lines that are not in the same plane. Lines \(AC\) and \(RS\) fit this definition.

Answer:

skew
