What else can I help you with?
How do you find the slope of a line that is parallel to another line?
Slopes of parallel lines are all the same.If they are parallel, their formulae of the form "y = mx + b" will only differ in the b. The m will be constant.
Do all lines have a slope?
Although all lines have the relationship that defines slope, one can argue that not all lines do have one. The exception would be vertical lines. Slope is defined as the vertical rate of change divided by the horizontal rate of change. In the case of a vertical line, there is no horizontal rate of change, and calculating slope would cause division by zero. The closest you could come to expressing the slope of a vertical line would be ∞
Are all trapezoids rhombuses?
No, a trapezoid has only 1 pair of parallel lines exactly. In a rhombus, all lines are parallel and congruent.
Are parallel lines the same length?
In geometry, lines are of infinite length. So, yes, parallel lines have the same length. They are completely 'G' rated at all times. They never touch.
Does a triangle have a set of parallel lines?
No. it is the only polygon that can not have parallel lines all though any regular polygon with an odd number of lines will have no parallel lines If three points were in a straight line it could be argued that these formed a triangle with parallel sides, though really it would be just a line; or if we had a triangle with infinite height the sides would be parallel. In any other case, no.
Do all parallel lines have a slope of zero?
No. the slope of parallel lines would be equal but not necessarily zero. How many values can m have in " y=mx +b "? where m is the slope of the lines.
What is the slope of all lines perpendicular to the line y equals 7?
All parallel lines have a zero slope.
How many slopes do parallel lines have?
The lines all have the same slope.
Why are all horizontal lines parallel?
By definition, lines are parallel if they have the same gradient (slope). Any horizontal line has a gradient of 0, so it is parallel to any other horizontal line.
Do intersecting lines have the same slope?
Intersecting lines NEVER have the same slope. However, if the lines are identical, meaning all their points are the same, then they will, of course, have the same slope as well as everything else. On the other hand, parallel lines have the same slope, but they do not share a single point.
What is parallel to y equals 2x 5?
All lines that have the same slope are parallel to each other. To determine which lines are parallel to the give equation, you must first have to determine the slope of the equation. Notice that your equation is written in y = mx + b form, where m represents slope. In this case, m = 2. Any equation with a slope of 2 is parallel to your given line. For examples of lines that would be parallel, the following are all parallel: y = 2x y = 2x + 1 y = 2x + 2 y = 2x + 100
What is the slope of a line that is parallel to y equals 2?
The line y=2, and all lines parallel to the x axis, have a slope of 0. The formula for this line in particular can be expressed as y=0x +2.
How is it determined whether the lines passing through some specified points are parallel perpendicular or neither?
The straight line equation is y = mx + b. If they do not cross and have the same slope they are parallel; if they cross and the slope (m) of one of them is the negative inverse slope of the other (-1/m) they are perpendicular. Otherwise they are neither
How do you find the slope of a line that is parallel to another line?
Slopes of parallel lines are all the same.If they are parallel, their formulae of the form "y = mx + b" will only differ in the b. The m will be constant.
If two lines are parallel what must be true?
If two lines are parallel, they must be equidistant from each other at all points and will never intersect, regardless of how far they are extended. Additionally, parallel lines have the same slope when represented in a coordinate system. This means that the angle of inclination relative to a horizontal line is identical for both lines.
What are all the lines like parallel?
parallel lines are slanted lines
Are all the longitudes parallel?
All lines of constant latitude are parallel to all others,but no two lines of constant longitude are parallel.
