In the graph below, the two lines are parallel. Parallel lines - are lines in the same plane that never intersect. The equation of line 1 is y = 2x
+ 1. the equation of line 2 is y = 2x -2
Slopes of Parallel Lines
Nonvertical lines are parallel if they have the same slope and
different y-intercepts.Any two vertical lines
are parallel.Any two horizontal lines
are parallel

You can use slope-intercept form of an equation to determine whether lines are
parallel.Are the graphs of y = -1/3x + 5 and 2x + 6y =
12 parallel? Explain.
Write 2x + 6y = 12 in slope-intercept
form, then compare with
y = -1/3x + 5
2x + 6y = 126y = -2x + 126y = - 2x + 12
6 6y = - 1/3x + 2Compare to
y = -1/3x + 5The lines are parallel.
The equations have the same slope, -1/3,
and different y-intercepts.

Are the graphs of -6x + 8y = -24 and y = 3/4x – 7 parallel? Explain.

You can use the fact that the slopes of parallel lines are the same to write the
equation of a line parallel to a given line. To write the equation, you use the slope of the
given line and the point-slope form of a linear equation.
Step 1 Identify the slope of the given line.y = 3/5x – 4
Step 2 Write the equation of the line through (5, 1) using point-slope form.y – y1 = m(x – x1) point-slope form.
y – 1 = 3/5(x – 5) Substitute (5, 1) for (x1,Y1) and 3/5 for m.
y – 1 = 3/5x – 3/5(5) Use the distributive property.
y – 1 = 3/5x – 3 Simplify.
y = 3/5x – 2 Add 1 to each side.

Write an equation for the line that contains (2, -6) and is parallel to y = 3x + 9
Step 1 Identify the slope of the given line.
Step 2 Write the equation of the line through (2, -6) using point-slope form of a linear equation.
y – y1 = m(x – x1)

through the given point.

The two lines in the graph below are perpendicular. Perpendicular lines – are lines that intersect to form right angles. The line y = 2x + 1 is perpendicular to the line y = -1/2x +
1.
Slopes of perpendicular lines
Two lines are perpendicular if the
product of their slopes is -1. A vertical and a
horizontal line are also perpendicular.

The product of two numbers is -1 if one number is the negative reciprocal of the
other. Here is how to find the negative reciprocal of a number.
Start with a fraction:-1/2
Find its reciprocal:-2/1
Write the negative reciprocal:2/1 or 2
Since -1/2 • 2/1 = -1, 2/1 is the negative reciprocal of -1/2

You can use the negative reciprocal of the slope of a given line to write an equation of a line perpendicular to that line. To write the equation, you use the negative reciprocal of the slope of
the given line and the point-slope form of a linear equation.
Step 1 Identify the slope of the given line.y = 5x + 3
Step 2 Find the negative reciprocal of the slope.5 • -1/5 = -1
Step 3 Use the point-slope form to write an equation that contains (0, -2) and is perpendicular to y = 5x + 3
y – y1 = m(x – x1) Point-slope form.
y – (-2) = -1/5(x – 0) Substitute (0, -2) for (x1,y1) and -1/5 for m.
y + 2 = -1/5x – 0 Use the distributive property.
y = -1/5x – 2 Subtract 2 from each side. Simplify.
