Case Study – 1
Two lines are parallel to each other, if the distance between these 2 lines always remains constant
throughout and they never meet. There are various examples of parallel lines that we see in our daily
life like railway line, 2 steps of ladder, opposite sides of a table etc. A line which cuts a pair of
parallel lines is called a transversal as shown in the figure.
