Parallel
A parallelogram is a quadrilateral in which each of two sets of opposite sides consists of two parallel lines (or for math purists I should say, parallel line segments).
The word parallel means that one set (or more) of lines will never touch, even if the line goes on forever.Example of a set of parallel lines:_______________________________________________________Note: parallel lines do not have to be in equal length.
[A Parallel line is a straight line, opposite to another, that do not intersect or meet.] Ie. Line 1 is Parallel to Line 2. ------------------------------------------------- <Line 1 ------------------------------------------------- <Line 2
The line y = 6 is horizontal and has a slope of zero, as does any line that is parallel to it.
