If L, M and N are three straight lines such that L || M and L || N, then prove that M|| N.

L || M M|| L.


Now, M||L and L||N M||N.


Assume M will intersect N.


It is given that L ||M and L ||N


According to our assumption, M will intersect N which is contradictory to parallel axiom.


So, our assumption is wrong.


Thus, M|| N
