To complete the statement, the correct option is: (c) no common point.

Understanding Parallel Lines

Parallel lines are defined as lines in a plane that never meet or intersect, regardless of how far they are extended. This means they maintain a constant distance apart.

Key Characteristics

  • They have the same slope.
  • They will never cross each other.
  • There are no points that are common to both lines.

In summary, parallel lines do not share any points, making option (c) the correct choice.
