 whats a parellel line?

Hi!
Here is the answer to your query.
 
Two lines are said to be parallel lines, if they never intersect each other. In other words, two lines are said to be parallel if the distance between them is constant.
 
 
In the above figure, if the two lines l and m are extended in any direction, then they never intersect. Thus, the lines l and m shown in the above figure are parallel lines. We represent it as l || m.
 
Cheers!

 Lines are parallel if they are always the same distance apart (called "equidistant"), and will never meet. Just remember:

Always the same distance apart and never touching.

The red line is parallel to the blue line in both these cases:

Parallel lines also point in the same direction.
