The video tutorial explains the concept of parallel lines, which do not intersect and maintain a constant distance apart. It demonstrates how to identify parallel and non-parallel lines using visual examples on a grid. The tutorial also covers the notation used to denote parallel lines, such as drawing small arrows on the lines and using specific symbols in writing.
