What is the slope of parallel lines?

Back

The slopes of parallel lines are equal.

3.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What are perpendicular lines?

Back

Perpendicular lines are lines that intersect at a right angle (90 degrees).

4.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What is the relationship between the slopes of perpendicular lines?

Back

The slopes of perpendicular lines are negative reciprocals of each other.

5.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

How can you determine if two lines are parallel from their equations?

Back

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

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What is an example of parallel lines in real life?

Back

Examples include railroad tracks, the edges of a ruler, or the lines on a football field.

7.
