The video tutorial explains the concept of parallel lines, emphasizing that they never intersect and have the same gradient but different y-intercepts. It covers how to calculate the gradient using the rise over run method and how to find the equation of a line using y=mx+c. The tutorial also demonstrates how to determine if two lines are parallel by comparing their gradients and how to find the equation of a parallel line passing through a specific point. Complex problems involving parallel lines are also addressed.
