Two lines that cross each other at a particular point are
called intersecting lines. The point where two lines cross is called the point
of intersection. Definition of Intersecting Lines:If two lines have one common point, they are called intersecting lines.For Example: (i) Two adjacent edges of a notebook(ii) Crossing roads(iii) The multiplication sign (×) etc. are the examples of the intersecting lines.
In the given figure \(\underset{AB}{\leftrightarrow}\) and \(\underset{CD}{\leftrightarrow}\) intersect each other at point O.
Working Rules to Draw Intersecting Lines:
Step I: Draw a line \(\overleftrightarrow{AB}\) and another line \(\overleftrightarrow{CD}\).Step II: Let them intersect each other at a point O.Step III: The point of intersection O lies on line AB as well as on line CD. Now, we can say that lines AB and CD are intersecting lines. They intersect at one point O.
