Parallel and Perpendicular Lines

Christopher is a developer and plans to build a new development. Use the grid to help Christopher create a map for his development. Each gridline represents one block.

Two main roads pass through the development, Moonbeam Drive and Sunshine Avenue. Are these two roads parallel to each other?

• Yes, because the lines are the same distance apart.

• No, because the lines will meet down the path.

• Yes, because the line will intersect at a fixed point.

• No, because the lines will never touch.

Christopher wants to build a road named Stargazer Boulevard that will be parallel to Moonbeam Drive. On this road, he will build a diner located 7 blocks north of the community garden. Determine the equation of the line that represents Stargazer Boulevard.

(answer should be in y=mx+b format, don't add spacing.)

An office building will be located at (8,4). What will be a line that bisects the building so that it is perpendicular to Sunshine Avenue?
