Question

part of a city map is shown.which street is parallel to 1st ave?a. 2nd aveb. main roadc. central aved. d street

Explanation:

Step1: Recall the definition of parallel lines

Parallel lines are lines in a plane that do not intersect. In the context of the city - map (which can be considered as a coordinate plane), horizontal lines are parallel to each other.

Step2: Identify the type of each street

1st Ave is a horizontal line.

• 2nd Ave is also a horizontal line.
• Main Road is a non - horizontal (diagonal) line.
• Central Ave is a non - horizontal (diagonal) line.
• D Street is a vertical line.

Since 1st Ave and 2nd Ave are both horizontal lines, they do not intersect.

Answer:

A. 2nd Ave
