Parallel and perpendicular lines in linear functions
Parallel lines are lines with identical slope. In other words, these lines will never cross each other. Perpendicular lines will always pass through each other and form right angles at the interception. In this lesson, we will learn how to use information such as, points in lines and their slopes, to determine whether the lines are parallel, perpendicular or neither.
Basic Concepts: Slope equation: m=x2−x1y2−y1, Slope intercept form: y = mx + b, Point-slope form: y−y1=m(x−x1)
Related Concepts: Parallel line equation, Perpendicular line equation, Combination of both parallel and perpendicular line equations
Lessons
Parallel lines−identical slope so they never intersect each other, unless overlapped.
Perpendicular lines−two lines form right angles to each other when they intersect. If the slope of first line is ba, the slope of perpendicular line is the slope of perpendicular line is −ab. The product of the two slopes is -1.

- How does that relate to slope?
- 1.Determine whether the three points A (-2,-1), B(0,4) & C(2,9) all lie on the same line.
- 2.Determine the following slopes are parallel, perpendicular, or neither.
i) m1=52,m2=52
ii) m1=51,m2=−15
iii) m1=74,m2=2112
iv) m1=undefined, m2=0
v) m1=mn−1;m2=−m−1b - 3.Given the points of two lines, determine when the lines are parallel, perpendicular or neither.a)Line 1: (3,2) & (1,4); Line 2: (-1,-2) & (-3,-4)b)Line 1: (5,6) & (7,8); Line 2: (-5,-6) & (-7,-8)c)Line 1: (0,4) & (-1,2); Line 2: (-3,5) & (1,7)
- 4.Show that the points A(-3,0), B(1,2) and C(3,-2) are the vertices of a right triangle.
- 5.Show that the points A(-1,-1), B(3,0), C(2,4) and D(-2,3) are the vertices of a square.
