if parallel lines can be drawn easily with scale only then why to construct it with compass ????

Dear Student,
Please follow the solution to the above given query:

It is not compulsory to draw parallel lines using compass. We can also draw using ruler but the distance between the two parallel lines at all points should be same. Also, if the question demands to construct parallel lines, we need to draw them with the help of a compass.
 
Hope this information will clear your doubts about Practical Geometry.

It depends upon the situation .Sometimes we don't know the length .At that time ,we have to use the compass and otherwise we can use a scale instead of that .
It also depends upon the question asked
