I need to know how draw lines parallel, I'm beginning with Opencv, please help. I use the houghlines function for detect lines, now I want detect lines parallel, I know that the ecuacion of a lines is y = k*x+b and two lines are parallel when k1 = k2. but how represent this in opencv with houghlines?

In another way,

  • Find the angle for each line using the equation

     double Angle = atan2(y2 - y1, x2 - x1) * 180.0 / CV_PI;
    
  • Compare angles for all detected lines to separate parallel lines.

The comparison can be done by applying a K-means clustering on the resulting angles. As to the angles itself, x and y are two points on the line itself (for clarification)

if I use houghlinesP I can calculate m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1) but I don't know how to compare between each item or pair of points (x1y1 and x2y2) of lines vector []. I trying with itertools.combination but I don't know how to do
