We establish a framework in which one can study perpendicularity and parallelism axiomatically. The lines of the Euclidean plane provide an admissible model of our axiom system but various other models exist, too. Focusing only on these two relations, our approach is more elementary and, thus, more suitable for the teaching of deductive geometry in the upper secondary schools and in mathematics teacher education than other existing axiomatizations of the Euclidean plane geometry.
