To analyze the diagram and identify which lines are perpendicular or parallel to each other, let’s break it down:

### **Parallel Lines**
Parallel lines do not intersect and are always the same distance apart. In the diagram:

- **Line \(XW\) and Line \(RS\)** are both horizontal and appear to be parallel to each other.
- **Line \(ZV\) and Line \(MN\)** are vertical and run parallel to each other.

### **Perpendicular Lines**
Perpendicular lines intersect at a right angle (90 degrees). In the diagram, the right angle is represented by the small square symbol at certain intersections.

- **Line \(ZV\) and Line \(XW\)** intersect perpendicularly at point \(Y\).
- **Line \(MN\) and Line \(RS\)** intersect perpendicularly at point \(R\).
- **Line \(MN\) and Line \(XP\)** also intersect perpendicularly at point \(T\).

### Summary of Relationships:
- **Parallel lines**: 
  - \(XW \parallel RS\)
  - \(ZV \parallel MN\)
- **Perpendicular lines**:
  - \(ZV \perp XW\)
  - \(MN \perp RS\)
  - \(MN \perp XP\)

### Tip:
To determine whether two lines are parallel or perpendicular algebraically, you can compare their slopes. Parallel lines have equal slopes, while perpendicular lines have slopes that are negative reciprocals of each other.
