please no Google ☠️​

Answer 1

ANSWER

Parallel vectors are vectors which have same or parallel support. They can have equal or unequal magnitudes and their directions may be same or opposite. Two vectors are collinear if they have the same direction or are parallel or anti-parallel.

Two vectors are said to be collinear, if they act along the same line or along parallel lines. So these are the necessary conditions. If collinear vectors act in the same direction, they are known as parallel vectors and if they act in opposite directions, they are known as antiparallel vectors.
