can you checK?
4 and 6, I would lean to perpendicular.
7. All trees grow upward here in Texas, so what is wrong with parallel?
Sure, let's check the answers:
1. The strings on a guitar: parallel - Correct! The strings on a guitar are parallel to each other.
2. The marks left by a skidding car: parallel - Incorrect. The marks left by a skidding car are not parallel, as they are likely to be curved or irregular.
3. Sidewalks on opposite sides of streets: parallel - Correct! Sidewalks on opposite sides of streets are typically parallel to each other.
4. The segments that make up a + sign: intersecting - Correct! The segments that make up a + sign intersect each other.
5. Wires suspended between telephone poles: parallel - Correct! The wires suspended between telephone poles are usually parallel to each other.
6. The hands of a clock at 9pm: intersecting - Incorrect. The hands of a clock at 9pm do not intersect; they are parallel to each other.
7. The trunks of grown trees in a forest: intersecting - Incorrect. The trunks of grown trees in a forest generally do not intersect; they are separate from each other.
So, the correct answers are:
1. The strings on a guitar: parallel
3. Sidewalks on opposite sides of streets: parallel
4. The segments that make up a + sign: intersecting
5. Wires suspended between telephone poles: parallel
I hope this clarifies your doubts!
