Question

in the square pyramid shown below, which lines are parallel? select all that apply.

Explanation:

Step1: Recall parallel - line definition

Parallel lines in 3 - D do not intersect and are in the same plane. In a square pyramid, the base is a square. The sides of the base are parallel to each other.

Step2: Analyze line pairs

The base of the square pyramid has vertices \(L\), \(M\), \(N\), and \(O\). The lines \(\overrightarrow{LM}\) and \(\overrightarrow{NO}\) are opposite sides of the square base. Opposite sides of a square are parallel.

Answer:

\(\overrightarrow{LM}\) and \(\overrightarrow{NO}\)
