Thank you!!!! xD I was wondering what are the differences between parallel and skew angles? I have a test in a day or so and I'm lost.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Lana? Do you know?

OpenStudy (chaise):

Parallel Lines have the same gradient and different y intercepts. Skew Lines have different gradients, they are not parallel and they do not intersect.

Ok....?...um thank you..... :)

OpenStudy (lalaly):

these are parallel lines, they hav the same slope, as chaise said and different y-intercepts

OpenStudy (lalaly):

these are skew lines , they hav different equations! , differnt slopes, .. the only similarity between parallel lines and skew lines is that both lines never intersect,
