FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What is the definition of parallel lines?

Back

Parallel lines are lines in a plane that never meet. They have the same slope but different y-intercepts.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What is the definition of perpendicular lines?

Back

Perpendicular lines are lines that intersect at a right angle (90 degrees). The slopes of perpendicular lines are negative reciprocals of each other.

3.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

How do you determine if two lines are parallel based on their equations?

Back

Two lines are parallel if they have the same slope in their slope-intercept form (y = mx + b).

4.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

How do you determine if two lines are perpendicular based on their slopes?

Back

Two lines are perpendicular if the product of their slopes is -1.

5.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What is the slope-intercept form of a line?

Back

The slope-intercept form of a line is given by the equation y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

6.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

If a line has a slope of -6, what is the slope of a line that is perpendicular to it?

Back

The slope of a line that is perpendicular to a line with a slope of -6 is 1/6.

7.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What is the slope of the line represented by the equation y = -2x + 5?

Back

The slope of the line is -2.
