Question

consider the diagram. lines ac and rs are coplanar parallel perpendicular skew

Explanation:

• Coplanar: Lines that lie on the same plane. Lines \(AC\) and \(RS\) do not lie on the same plane.
• Parallel: Parallel lines are coplanar and do not intersect. Since \(AC\) and \(RS\) are not coplanar, they cannot be parallel.
• Perpendicular: Perpendicular lines intersect at a right - angle (\(90^{\circ}\)). But for two lines to be perpendicular, they must be coplanar. \(AC\) and \(RS\) are not coplanar.
• Skew: Skew lines are non - coplanar and do not intersect. Lines \(AC\) and \(RS\) are not in the same plane and do not intersect, so they are skew.

Answer:

D. skew
