Symbol. The parallel symbol is . For example, indicates that line AB is parallel to line CD. In the Unicode character set, the "parallel" and "not parallel" signs have codepoints U+2225 (∥) and U+2226 (∦), respectively. In addition, U+22D5 (⋕) represents the relation "equal and parallel to".
Glossary of mathematical symbols. A mathematical symbol is a figure or a combination of figures that is used to represent a mathematical object, an action on mathematical objects, a relation between mathematical objects, or for structuring the other symbols that occur in a formula. As formulas are entirely constituted with symbols of various ...

References. External links. Parallelogram. In Euclidean geometry, a parallelogram is a simple (non- self-intersecting) quadrilateral with two pairs of parallel sides. The opposite or facing sides of a parallelogram are of equal length and the opposite angles of a parallelogram are of equal measure.
The symbol for parallel lines is \(\parallel,\) so we can say that \(\overleftrightarrow{AB}\parallel\overleftrightarrow{CD}\) in that figure. According to the axioms of Euclidean geometry, a line is not parallel to itself, since it intersects itself infinitely often.
Parallel is a term in geometry and in everyday life that refers to a property of lines or planes. Parallel lines or planes are next to each other, but never touch each other. This means they never intersect at any point. If two lines and are parallel, then we describe this by writing .
Usage. In geometry, the parallel symbol is used to denote two lines that are parallel to each other. Typically the parallel symbol is used in an expression like this: AB ∥ C D. In plain language, this means that the line AB is parallel to the line C D. Read more….
