Answer 1

Using edge could perhaps be an option.

\documentclass{beamer}
\beamertemplatenavigationsymbolsempty
\usepackage{pgfplots}
\begin{document}
\begin{frame}[fragile,t]
\frametitle{}
{
\begin{tikzpicture}
\draw [thick, green] (2.3,1.4) +(-27:2.2cm) edge +(153:2.2cm) +(42:1.88cm) edge[blue] +(-138:1.88cm);
\end{tikzpicture}
}
\end{frame}
\end{document}
