Can one line have two slopes?
A straight line cannot have two slopes. A curve, however, might have a different slope at every different point.
If there are two lines that are perpendicular and one of the two slopes is negative one third then what is the slope of the other line?
Positive 3
What line segments on a position versus time graph is physically impossible a horizontal line a straight line that slopes to the right a straight line that slopes to the left?
a verticla line
How do you know if two lines are intersecting lines with out graphing?
For two dimensional lines: Get the formulas for the two lines into a format so that you can evaluate the slope. If the slopes are different, then they will intersect. If the slopes are the same, then you have two parallel lines, or possibly, the two equations describe the same line.
When two slopes are equal they are?
There are two possibilities. If the y intercepts are unique, the lines are parallel. If the y intercepts are the same, the lines are coincident. ( They are the same line)
Can one line have two slopes?
A straight line cannot have two slopes. A curve, however, might have a different slope at every different point.
Can a line have two slopes why or why not?
Yes it can, but it would not then be a straight line but an angle.
Roof with two slopes and gable at both ends?
If the gable is formed by the two slopes and a horizontal line, it is called a gable roof.
How do you know if two line segments are parallel?
Their slopes are equal.
How do you know if two line segments are perpendicular?
their slopes are negative reciprocals.
If two lines are parallel what do you know about their slopes?
If two lines are parallel, they have the same slope.(And if they are perpendicular, the product of their slopes is minus one - unless one line is horizontal and the other vertical.)
What type of slope does a line that slopes upward have?
A line that slopes to the right and up has a positive slope.
If there are two lines that are perpendicular and one of the two slopes is negative one third then what is the slope of the other line?
Positive 3
What line segments on a position versus time graph is physically impossible a horizontal line a straight line that slopes to the right a straight line that slopes to the left?
a verticla line
If two lines are perpendicular what is the respective slopes equal to?
Given any line L, with slope m, the perpendicular line has slope -m.
How do you know if two lines are intersecting lines with out graphing?
For two dimensional lines: Get the formulas for the two lines into a format so that you can evaluate the slope. If the slopes are different, then they will intersect. If the slopes are the same, then you have two parallel lines, or possibly, the two equations describe the same line.
What are the slopes of perpendicular lines called?
Slopes of line perpendicular to the x-axis are undefined.
