Intersecting, parallel and ultra parallel lines through a with respect to l in the hyperbolic plane. The parallel lines appear to intersect l just off the image. This is just an artifact of the visualisation. On a real hyperbolic plane the lines will get closer to each other and 'meet' in infinity.
Tangential – intersecting a curve at a point and parallel to the curve at that point. Collinear – in the same line; Parallel – in the same direction. Transverse – intersecting at any angle, i.e. not parallel. Orthogonal (or perpendicular) – at a right angle (at the point of intersection).
Parallel (latitude), an imaginary east–west line circling a globe; Parallel of declination, used in astronomy; Parallel, a geometric term of location meaning "in the same direction" Parallel electrical circuits
Two pairs of opposite sides are parallel (by definition). Two pairs of opposite sides are equal in length. Two pairs of opposite angles are equal in measure. The diagonals bisect each other. One pair of opposite sides is parallel and equal in length. Adjacent angles are supplementary. Each diagonal divides the quadrilateral into two congruent ...
Parallel computing, the simultaneous execution on multiple processors of different parts of a program In the analysis of parallel algorithms, the maximum possible speedup of a computation; Parallel evolution, the independent emergence of a similar trait in different unrelated species; Parallel (geometry), the property of parallel lines
In this case, one gets a parallel curve on the opposite side of the curve (see diagram on the parallel curves of a circle). One can easily check that a parallel curve of a line is a parallel line in the common sense, and the parallel curve of a circle is a concentric circle.

Clifford's original definition was of curved parallel lines, but the concept generalizes to Clifford parallel objects of more than one dimension. [2] In 4-dimensional Euclidean space Clifford parallel objects of 1, 2, 3 or 4 dimensions are related by isoclinic rotations.
