Parallel lines have the same slope. So if you know the slope of a line in question, or you can calculate it, then you know the slope of any line parallel to that line.
you look at the line and see if there are any direct points on the line the slope formula
The slope of two lines are perpendicular only if their slopes multiplied together equal -1 (m1*m2 = -1). So if a line has a slope of -3 then a line perpendicular to this one has a slope of -1/-3 or 1/3.
If two nonvertical lines are perpendicular, then the product of their slope is -1.An equivalent way of stating this relationship is to say that one line is perpendicular to another line if its slope is the negative reciprocal of the slope of the other. For example, if a line has slope 3, any line having slope - 1/3 is perpendicular to it. Similarly, if a line has slope - 4/5, any line having the slope 5/4 is perpendicular to it.
A line does not have an inverse!
Never.
If a line has a slope m then a line perpendicular to it has a slope -1/m ( negative inverse). For example if a line has slope positive 2, its perpendicular has slope -1/2
A direct relationship if the slope of the line is positive. An inverse relationship if the slope of the line is negative.
Since the inverse of a function is it's reflection over the line x=y, which has a slope of 1. The only way a function can be It'a own inverse is if it is a liner function whose slope is perpendicular to the line. Since a perpendicular line is any line with the negative recoprocal of the slope, any linear function whose slope is -1 will be it's own inverse. - stefanie math 7-12 teacher
The slope of an inverse relationship
if slope is given as m then perpendicular slope is -1/m (negative inverse)
If the slope of a line is m then the slope of an altitude to that line is -1/m.
The slope a graph's line is both a qualitative and quantitative indicator. Based on slope inverse, direct, or null relationships can be observed and even quantified through algebraic expressions. The elementary formula for the slope of a line is rise divided by run or (Y2-Y1)/(X2-X1).
Parallel lines have the same slope. So if you know the slope of a line in question, or you can calculate it, then you know the slope of any line parallel to that line.
The slope of both lines will be the same.
the slope of a line = the Change in Y divided by the Change in X
