question from amateur, why no demonstration for intersecting lines?

Hi,

I have begun working with mathematica 6 in order to improve my skills
with some math concepts. I am taking the GMAT soon, and I'm trying to
see the equations from all angles.

I've been looking for a demonstration that would allow me to
interactively see the relationship between two intersecting lines, but
no such demonstration exists. I am curious about this, since this is a
rather simple thing. Even a TI-82 will graph multiple lines.

As I'm sure it is just my unfamiliarity with the program, I am
wondering if any such template exists or if there is another way to do
this in the program.

Thanks a lot for your help
