Question

marissa says that lines a and d will eventually intersect. is she correct? explain. yes, because they are on the same plane yes, because they are perpendicular no, because they are parallel no, because they are skew

Explanation:

• Parallel lines are lines in a plane that do not intersect. Skew lines are non - parallel and non - intersecting lines that are not in the same plane.
• Lines \(a\) and \(d\) are not on the same plane. But more importantly, parallel lines (in 3 - D space, if we consider the planes here) have the property that they will never meet. Lines \(a\) and \(d\) are parallel (by the arrow markings indicating direction, which is a common way to show parallelism in geometric figures). Since parallel lines do not intersect, Marissa is incorrect.

Answer:

no, because they are parallel
