Parallelism in sentences refers to matching grammatical structures. This principle of parallel construction requires that expressions of similar content and function should be outwardly similar. The likeness of form enables the reader to recognize more readily the likeness of content and function. A common problem in writing today is the false series. It happens when a writer combines three or more seemingly related elements in a series, but the syntax is wrong. When you get the sentence right, you're said to be using parallel construction.

Why might you choose to use ECP mode for your parallel port rather than EPP mode?

ECP is faster (because it uses a DMA channel).


What happens if the switch is open in a parallel circuit?

If the switch in a parallel circuit is open, it breaks the circuit and interrupts the flow of current for that particular branch. The other branches in the parallel circuit remain unaffected and continue to operate independently.

Why do you connect electrical lamps in series?

If you are referring to house wiring, then you don't normally connect lamps in series with each other; they are normally connected in parallel with each other. When lamps are connected in parallel, each lamp is subjected to the same voltage; providing this is the rated voltage of each lamp, them each will operate at their rated power.If you did connect lamps in parallel, the you would find that the lamps with the higher power ratings will be dimmer than the lamps with the lower power ratings -which is not what you might expect!


Is a nonagon parallel or concruent?

Well a nonagon is a nine sided polygon. If you make the lines or sides parallel, then you will have a parallel figure. Or some parallel lines on a figure (polygon). If you choose to make your polygon (nonagon) have a pair of congruent sides, then your polygon will have some congruent sides. Therefore it really matters what your shape looks like. For example, a quadrilateral can be a square or a kite (or many others but I'm just using these) a kite might have no parallel lines and a square may have 2 sets of parallel lines. Do you get it? Does that answer your question? FYI: A nonagon is also known as a enneagon :)
