7
Parallel Lines
To determine if two equations will result in parallel lines........
Ensure both equations are in slope-intercept form (y=mx+b)
Compare the slopes (m)
Compare the y-intercepts (b)
8
Parallel Lines
Consider the following equations:
y = 3x + 8
-3x + y = 10
Before we can compare slopes and y-intercepts, both equations have to be in slope-intercept form
9
Multiple Choice
y=3x+8 is in proper slope-intercept form
-3x+y=10 is not in proper slope-intercept form
True
False
10
Parallel Lines
Let's make the equation -3x + y = 10 more accessible by putting it in slope-intercept form:
-3x + y = 10
+3x +3x Move the variable
y = 3x + 10
So, the two equations, now in slope-intercept form, are:
y = 3x + 8
y = 3x + 10
11
Drag and Drop
y = 3x + 8 y = 3x + 10
The slope of the first equation is
The y-intercept of the first equation is
12
Parallel Lines
Since both equations have the same slope, m=3, and since the equations have different y-intercepts, b=8 and b=10.....
The lines are parallel
y = 3x + 8
y = 3x + 10
The lines are parallel
These lines will never intersect. There is no solution to the System of Equations.
13
Perpendicular Lines
Now, let's talk about perpendicular lines! What do you think perpendicular means?
14
Perpendicular Lines
Two lines that form a 90 degree, right angle at the point of intersection
15
Perpendicular Lines
Think about what the slopes and
y-intercepts may look like for these
two lines when compared

Perpendicular
Lines
Perpendicular lines have slopes that
are both opposite reciprocals
Equations:
If Line A has the following equation: y = 5x - 2
then what would the slope need to be for Line B in order for the lines to intersect at a 90 degree angle (to be perpendicular)?
