7.8 Parallel and Perpendicular Lines Standard 8.0: Understand the concepts of parallel and perpendicular lines and how their slopes are related.
Vocabulary • Parallel Lines– Lines that never cross and never intersect. • Perpendicular Lines – Lines that, when they cross each other, form right angles.
Steps for determining if graphs are parallel or perpendicular • Put both equations into slope-intercept form. • Find the slope and y-intercept of each equation. • Analyze the slope and y-intercept Parallel – Slope is the same; y-intercept different Perpendicular– Slope is a negative reciprocal
