Answer:

b. parallel

Explanation:

Given : Non-intersecting lines that are separated by equal distances at every point can best be described as _____

Solution :

By the property of parallel lines that is two lines that are equidistant and non intersecting are called parallel lines

by this property we can say that the Non-intersecting lines that are separated by equal distances at every point can best be described as PARALLEL .

OPTION A is wrong because adjacent lines meet at vertex and we are given that the lines are non intersecting so OPTION A is wrong.

OPTION C is wrong because skew lines are not necessarily separated by equal distance.

OPTION D is wrong because perpendicular lines meet at some point so they are not said non intersecting lines

Thus OPTION B is correct.
