Suppose the specified line has gradient m. Also suppose the specified distance is d.Then x = sqrt[d2/(1 + m2)] and y = m*x.
A translation, by a distance x in the horizontal direction and y=mx in the vertical direction will move the point by the specified distance in the direction of the specified line.
Parallel lines are the same distance apart for all points along the line.
For two coordinates points (x1, y1) and x2, y2), you can find the straight line distance using the Pythagorean theorem.The vertical difference (y1-y2) forms one side of the triangle, and the horizontal difference is the other (x2-x1). The hypotenuse is the straight distance along the line, and is defined by :h = square root of (a2 plus b2) = square root of [ (y2-y1)2 + (x2-x1)2 ]---EXAMPLE :For points (1, 3) and (4, 7), the distance along y is (7-3) and along x is (4-1) andsquare root [ 42 + 32 ] = sq rt [9 + 16] = sq rt [25] = 5.Measuring the distance along the line would verify that the distance is 5.
i searched for this myself but when i drew what they were asking it was pretty obvious that the answer was a diameter. hope this will help.
In a way it does because it means straight lines that remain equal distance apart and never intersect with each other.
In Euclidean space, they could intersect along their whole lengths (in the lines are identical), at a point if they are coplanar and not parallel, or nowhere if they are parallel or skew.

Parallel lines are the same distance apart for all points along the line.
You've specified a distance, but no force. Any answer is correct without a force specified.

Parallel lines fits the given description.
The equator.
It is provided by the markings on a ruler which can be laid along the line.
You could use satellites with GPS to identify the location of the points that are furthest East and West. The GPS system may give you the distance between the points. Otherwise, you need to measure this along the Great Circle.You could use satellites with GPS to identify the location of the points that are furthest East and West.

If the two lines are parallel, then the shortest distance between them is a single, fixed quantity. It is the distance between any point on one line along the perpendicular to the line.Now consider the situation where the two lines meet at a point X, at an angle 2y degrees. Suppose you wish to find points on the lines such that the shortest distance between them is 2d units. [The reason for using multiples of 2 is that it avoids fractions].The points are at a distance d*cos(y) from X, along each of the two lines.
It is simply called the distance between the two points - simple as that. How that distance is measured will depend on the nature of the surface on which the two points are located as well as on the metric for measuring distance that is defined on that space.The common metric in Euclidean space is the Pythagorean distance while on the surface of a sphere (like the Earth, for example), distances are measured along the great arc.
Wavefront: A line (crest of the wave) in which all the points along it are in phase Wavelength: the distance between two adjacent points that are in phase
"Parallel" refers to the relationship between two lines, not to a single line. Two lines are said to be parallel, or one line is parallel TO ANOTHER, if they are in the same plane, and are always at the same distance from each other, that is, as you move along one line, the distance to the other line is always the same - they don't cross, or get away from one another.
