Lines
Alg 7.0
Derive linear equations by using the
point-slope formula.
Alg 8.0
Understand the concepts of parallel
lines and perpendicular lines and how
those slopes are related. Find the
equation of a line perpendicular to a
given line that passes through a given
point.

perpendicular
Perpendicular lines have slopes that are
opposite reciprocals
Perpendicular Lines
Two lines are perpendicular if they intersect to form right angles.

Part 1: Parallel Lines
Parallel lines:
Lines are parallel if they have the
same slope but different y-intercepts.
Write in slopeintercept form
the equation of
the line that is
parallel to the
line in the graph
and passes
through
the given point.

Flow map for parallel lines:
Step 1:
Determine
the slope
that you
will need
m=
Step 2:
take the
given
point
x1 =
y1 =
Step 3: plug
the point
and slope
into the
point - slope
formula
Step 4:
distribute
and solve
for “y”
y = mx + b
y – y1 = m(x – x1)

Summary
• Parallel Lines: They have the same exact slope (m)
and different y-intercepts (b)
• Perpendicular Lines: Their slopes are opposite
(change the sign) and reciprocals (flip)of each
other.
