Two vectors are parallel exactly when one is a scalar multiple of the other, shown by factorising the expression.
Author note — to cover (Higher)
Higher only, under G25's braced geometric arguments: two vectors are parallel exactly when one is a scalar multiple of the other; factorise expressions like 2a plus 4b to exhibit the multiple, and state the parallel conclusion in words. Collinearity builds on this on the next page. (G25)
