Non-Intersecting Lines
Non-intersecting lines are lines that do not cross or intersect each other. They can be found in various fields such as mathematics, physics, and computer science.
Some examples of non-intersecting lines are:
- Railway Tracks
- Electrical Wiring
- Pipelines
Properties of Non-Intersecting Lines
Some of the most common properties of non-intersecting or parallel lines are:
- Non-intersecting lines never meet each other at any point, no matter how far they are extended.
- The distance between two non-intersecting lines is always the same.
- If a transversal line intersects two non-intersecting lines, certain pairs of angles formed:
- Corresponding angles
- Alternate interior angles
- Alternate exterior angles
Note: Corresponding angles, Alternate interior angles and Alternate exterior angles are always equal.

Intersecting Lines
Intersecting Lines are those lines which interact with each other at one point forming an intersection point. Also, at the point of intersection of two lines, 4 angles are formed. These angles form pairs of equal angles i.e. Vertical Opposite Angles. In this article, we will discuss Intersecting lines in detail.
