Question

question 34 of 49 which of the following would be the best example of parallel lines in the real world? a. a bridge extending over a river b. the lines formed on a windowpane c. the northbound and southbound lanes on a straight highway d. a four - way stop at an intersection

Explanation:

Parallel lines are lines that never intersect and are always the same distance apart. In option A, a bridge over a river may not have parallel - like features in a strict geometric sense. In option B, windowpane lines may not always be perfectly parallel. In option D, a four - way stop at an intersection has intersecting lines. The northbound and southbound lanes on a straight highway are designed to be parallel as they never meet and maintain a constant distance between them.

Answer:

C. The northbound and southbound lanes on a straight highway
