To draw a horizontal line using a ruler, keep the ruler in sleeping position, parallel to the edge of the page and draw the line from left to right or right to left. Plot any point on the coordinate plane, for example, (1, 2). Identify the y-coordinate of the point marked. Here, it is 2.
Parallel Line Equations. Linear equations are generally described by the slope-intercept represented by the equation y = m x + b. Where “m” is the slope, “b” is the y-intercept, and y and x are variables. The value of “m” determines the slope and indicates the steep slope of the line. Note that the slopes of the two parallel lines ...

As adjectives the difference between parallel and horizontal is that parallel is equally distant from one another at all points while horizontal is perpendicular to the vertical; parallel to the plane of the horizon; level, flat. As nouns the difference between parallel and horizontal is that parallel is one of a set of parallel lines while ...
Activity 3. House of lines. This is a two-player game. Pick a room in your house! Player 1 gets a point for every pair of parallel lines they can find in the room. Player 2 gets a point for every ...
Parallel Lines share the same slope, but your wording is a bit incorrect. Parallel Lines can intersect, if and only if the two lines have infinite intersection (So one line overlay on another). All other lines that don't share the same slope intersects at some point (Assuming 2D) because those two lines form an angle at the intersection.

Pairs of Angles. When parallel lines get crossed by another line (which is called a Transversal ), you can see that many angles are the same, as in this example: These angles can be made into pairs of angles which have special names. Click on each name to see it highlighted: Now play with it here. Try dragging the points, and choosing different ...
Horizontal means "side-to-side" hence horizontal line is a sleeping line, whereas, vertical means "up-to-down" therefore a vertical line is a standing line. Horizontal lines are lines drawn from left to right or right to left and are parallel to the x-axis. Vertical lines are lines drawn up and down and are parallel to the y-axis.
