Understanding Parallel and Perpendicular Lines

The video tutorial explains the concepts of parallel and perpendicular lines using real-life examples like railroad tracks. It describes parallel lines as equidistant lines that never meet and introduces the transitive rule of parallelism. Perpendicular lines are defined as lines that intersect at right angles, and the video demonstrates how to identify these lines. The tutorial concludes with a practice session to help viewers distinguish between parallel and perpendicular lines.

What is a key characteristic of parallel lines?

• They are always curved.

• They form right angles with each other.

• They intersect at a point.

• They are always at a constant distance from each other.
