Parallel Lines

State

Parallel lines have equal slopes and different y-intercepts; equal steepness with no shared point keeps them apart forever.

Show

y = 2x + 1 and y = 2x − 4 both climb at slope 2, always 5 apart vertically — they never meet.

Watch for

Same slope and same intercept is one line, not two.

Builds on

  • Nothing — this is a starting point.

Unlocks

  • Nothing yet depends on this.
