Demystifying - Parallel lines

Drills

Lines with equal gradients never meet, and writing a parallel line’s equation.

Author note — to cover

Identify parallel lines from equal gradients in y = mx + c, including after rearranging, and write the equation of the line parallel to a given one through a given point. Both tiers — the A9 braces cover only perpendicularity, which is the Higher sibling page. (A9)
