What happens at the point of intersection of two lines?

• They create a curve

• They form parallel lines

How can intersecting lines be identified?

• By the angles they form

• By never crossing each other

• By the point where they meet

• By their parallel nature

• Yes, but only in certain conditions

• Yes, always
