Introduction
Have you ever looked at railway tracks? They run alongside each other forever and never meet. That's the perfect way to understand parallel lines!
Maharashtra State Board: Class 6
Definition: Parallel Lines
Parallel lines are straight lines that never intersect and remain at a constant distance from each other.
They are denoted by the symbol “∥”, meaning ‘is parallel to’.
Examples: Railroad tracks, Zebra crossings, Staircase steps

Properties of Parallel Lines
-
Parallel lines always remain at a constant distance apart.
-
Parallel lines never intersect.
-
Arrows on lines show they run in the same direction.
CISCE: Class 6
