Perpendicular lines are lines that will cross each other at an exact _____________ angle.
Examine the graphs below and identify which is parallel and perpendicular. Then calculate the
slope for each of the lines and draw a conclusive statement about the slopes of each relationship.
parallel
These lines are ______________________________
perpendicular
These lines are ______________________________

Slope !: ___________ 2
Slope ": ___________ 2
Slope !: ___________ z
Slope ": ___________
same
RULE for parallel lines: Parallel lines have the __________________ slope. Parallel lines will have
different #-interecepts because they cross at different locations on the graph, but the rate at which
!"#$
they !%& will be the same.
Write an equation of a line that passes through (−&, −() and is PARALLEL to the line * = &, + ..
