Perspective (graphical) with one-point perspective. These parallel lines converge at the vanishing point. One-point perspective exists when the picture plane is parallel to two axes of a rectilinear (or Cartesian) scene – a scene which is composed entirely of linear elements that intersect only at right angles. If one axis is parallel with the picture plane, then all elements are either parallel to the picture plane (either horizontally or vertically) or perpendicular to it. All elements that are parallel to the picture plane are drawn as parallel lines. All elements that are perpendicular to the picture plane converge at a single point
Parallel (geometry) same three-dimensional space that do not intersect need not be parallel. Only if they are in a common plane are they called parallel; otherwise they are called skew lines. Two distinct lines "l" and "m" in three-dimensional space are parallel if and only if the distance from a point "P" on line "m" to the nearest point on line "l" is independent of the location of "P" on line "m". This never holds for skew lines. A line "m" and a plane "q" in three-dimensional space, the line not lying in that plane, are parallel if and only if they
