Slope of a line is the value of the angle that a straight line makes with the positive direction of x-axis in the anticlockwise sense. Slope is also refer to as Gradient.
Basically for any straight line y = mx + b , m is referred to as slope.
Parallel lines are the lines that lie in the same plane have the property that they never intersect each other. They never meet at a point. They are always the same distance apart.
Slope of Parallel lines : Property
Parallel lines have the value of the angle made with the x axis always same.. they always have the same slope.
Slopes of two parallel lines are equal.
Let the equation of two lines be y=(m1)x + c1 and y=(m2)x + c2 where m1 and m2 are slopes of the lines. The two lines are parallel if and only if m1 = m2.
