The question is asking to define the relationship between the horizontal bar and the swing seat. Since the two chains are exactly inches apart from one another and attached to the pole which is horizontal from the swing and the swing seat itself is inches, it is concluded that the two chains are parallel to one another.
The question is asking to define the relationship between the two chains that hold the swing to the swing set. Since the swing will hang directly down from the two chains and the bar is horizontal to ground it can be assumed that the chain and the bar form a angle and thus, they are perpendicular to one another. The question is asking to define the relationship between one of the chains and the horizontal bar it is attached to. "The seat of a swing on a swing set is attached to the top horizontal bar by two chains that are exactly inches from each other and of equal length. This also means they have opposite sign, reciprocal slopes. Perpendicular lines: In a plane, perpendicular lines are lines that intersect by creating a angle. "The body of the truck is not perpendicular to the hill." The relation of the truck's tires to the hill will never be parallel since they constantly touch. Also, for these same reasons it is known that the truck will never be perpendicular to the hill. Therefore, the truck and the hill will never be parallel.
Now, look at the aspects of this particular problem.įrom this statement, it cannot be assumed that the hill is a straight line nor can it be assumed that the hill goes on forever. Perpendicular lines: In a plane, perpendicular lines are lines that intersect by creating a degree angle. This means they have the same slope but different intercepts. Parallel lines: In a plane, parallel lines are lines that will never intersect. First, recall the definitions of parallel and perpendicular lines, since those terms are among the answer selections. This question is trying to put a mathematical definition to a real life situation.
