You could plot one line dashed.  This can be done with the PlotStyle
option.

In[6]:= Plot[ {Sin[x], Cos[x]}, {x,0,2Pi},
                PlotStyle -> {{Thickness[0.001]}, {Dashing[{0.01}]}}]
        

Out[6]= -Graphics-


The standard package Graphics`Legend` adds the capability 

to include a legend in the picture.


In[7]:= <<Graphics`Legend`

In[8]:= Plot[ {Sin[x], Cos[x]}, {x,0,2Pi},
                PlotStyle -> {{Thickness[0.001]}, {Dashing[{0.01}]}},
                PlotLegend -> {"Sin", "Cos"}]
                

Out[8]= -Graphics-
