Are two lines with the same slope and different y-intecept perpendicular?
Two lines with the same slope are parallel.
Do parallel lines have negative reciprocals?
The slope of parallel lines are the same, but the slope of perpendicular lines are negative reciprocals of each other.
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 can we tell if two lines are parallel perpendicular or neither just from their equations?
If the slope of the equations are the same then they are parallel If the slope of the equations are minus reciprocal then they are perpendicular If the slope of the equations are different then they are neither
Are two lines with the same slope and different y-intercept perpendiculars?
No because two lines with the same slope but with different y intercepts are parallel lines. Perpendicular lines meet each other at right angles.
