Take any two lines and look at their slopes. -- If the slopes are equal, then the lines are parallel. -- If the product of the slopes is -1, then the lines are perpendicular.
equal
Yes
Yes, as long as the negative slopes are both equal.
When two lines are perpendicular to each other the product of their slopes is equal to -1.m1*m2 = -1
The slopes of parallel lines are by definition equal.
negative reciprocal slopes ---> the lines are perpendicular equal slopes ---> the lines are parallel
Take any two lines and look at their slopes. -- If the slopes are equal, then the lines are parallel. -- If the product of the slopes is -1, then the lines are perpendicular.
equal
equal
Yes
The slopes of two perpendicular lines are negative inverses of each other. In other words, the two slopes when multiplied together equal -1.
When the perpendicular lines are horizontal and vertical.
Yes, as long as the negative slopes are both equal.
Two parallel lines have equal slopes.
Slopes of line perpendicular to the x-axis are undefined.
In that case, the product of the slopes is equal to minus 1.
