Answer:

They are intersecting line segments ⇒ answer b

Explanation:

* Lets explain the types of the lines

- Parallel lines lie in the same plane and never intersect each other

- Intersecting lines are lines that meet each other in exactly one point

- Skew lines are lines that are in different planes and never intersect

* Now lets solve the problem

- The line segments that cut sides of a wedge of apple pie

∵ The wage of apple pie could represent a plane

∵ The line segments cut the sides of the wedge

∴ The lines are in the same plane

∵ Skew lines are in different planes and never intersect

The lines can not be skew

∵ The line segments that cut sides of the wage must be intersected

at exactly one point

∵ Parallel lines never intersected

The lines can not be parallel lines

They are intersecting line segments
