Drawing the diagram suggested just seems to make a regular parallel line to me. I have just come across the term antiparallel (in a physics text) used to describe a vector which is parallel to an axis but in the opposite sense. So perhaps antiparallel means something like this: if two vectors (or arrows or lines with direction) are parallel but in opposing senses then they are antiparallel. For example a left-to-right arrow is antiparallel to a right-to-left arrow. AP.

I rewrote the article.--Cronholm144 09:14, 13 July 2007 (UTC)
