title: Equipollence (geometry)
text: In Euclidean geometry, equipollence is a binary relation between directed line segments. Two segments are said to be equipollent when they have the same length and direction. Two equipollent segments are parallel but not necessarily colinear nor overlapping, and vice versa. For example, a segment AB, from point A to point B, has the opposite direction to segment BA; thus AB and BA are not equipollent.
