Question

what type of lines are coplanar and do not intersect?
a. parallel
b. perpendicular
c. segments
d. transversal

Explanation:

• Parallel lines: By definition, parallel lines are coplanar (lie on the same plane) and never intersect.
• Perpendicular lines: These lines intersect at a right - angle (\(90^{\circ}\)), so they do not meet the non - intersecting criterion.
• Segments: Line segments have a finite length. While two non - intersecting segments can be coplanar, the term “segments” is too general compared to the more specific property - based definition of parallel lines for non - intersecting and coplanar.
• Transversal: A transversal is a line that intersects two or more other lines (which can be parallel or non - parallel). So, it is not a type of line that is non - intersecting in the context of the question.

Answer:

A. parallel
