Front

Triangle HJK and triangle PMK are similar right triangles. What is true about the slope of line HK and the slope of line PK?

Back

The slope of line HK is equal to the slope of line PK because the ratio of the change in y-values of the endpoints to the change in x-values of the endpoints is the same for line HK as it is for line PK.
