Answering this question relies on understanding the meaning of "Parallel" , "Intersect" and "skew". In your own words, what do you understand each to mean?

Parralel: two lines of the same size going the ame way. Intersect: move into each Skew: i was never taught that.

> Parralel: two lines of the same size going the ame way. The size of the segments doesn't really matter. :) So long as they will never intersect (overlap) then they are parallel. > Intersect: move into each Yup. Intersect basically means "overlap" or "touch" or "meet". > Skew This is weird to see in a 2d geometry problem. In 3d geometry skew lines that are not in the same plane and do not intersect. In a 2d context, I guess they are two segments which don't intersect and aren't parallel.
