4.  What  is  the  slope  of  a  line  that  is  parallel  to  each  line?  
 
!
a)  𝑦 = ! 𝑥 − 2         b)  𝑦 = −𝑥 + 7       c)  2𝑥 − 𝑦 + 3 = 0

a)             b)           c)  
 
 
 
 
d)             e)           f)    
 
 
 
 
6.  Write the equations of two lines that are parallel to the line 3𝑥 − 6𝑦 − 5 = 0

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
7. Write the equations of two lines that are perpendicular to the line 4𝑥 + 𝑦 − 2 = 0

8. A triangle has vertices A(1, 2), B(3, 8), and C(6, 7).

a) Plot these points and draw the triangle.

b) Does this appear to be a right triangle? Explain.

c) Find the slopes of the line segments that form this triangle.

d) Explain how the slopes can be used to conclude whether or not this is a right triangle. Is it?
9. Determine whether or not the following sets of points form right triangles. Justify your answers with
mathematical reasoning. 

a) A(1, 1), B(-2, 5), C(3, -2)

b) P(2, 4), Q(-2, 2), R(5, -2)

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Answers:  
 
1)  a)  parallel    b)  Parallel    c)  Perpendicular      d)  Parallel  
3)  a)  parallel    b)  perpendicular    d)  perpendicular    e)  parallel    
! !!
4)  a)  𝑚 = !      b)  𝑚 = −1      d)  𝑚 = !    e)  𝑚 = 0  
 
!! !
5)  a)  𝑚 = !      b)  𝑚 = 1    d)  𝑚 = !      e)  undefined  
 
! ! !
6)  Any  two  lines  with  a  slope  of  !.  Examples:  𝑦 = ! 𝑥 + 99  and  𝑦 = ! 𝑥 + 87  
 
! ! !
7)  Any  two  lines  with  a  slope  of  !.  Examples:  𝑦 = ! 𝑥 + 71  and  𝑦 = ! 𝑥 + 87  
 
!!
8)  b)  It  appears  vertex  B  might  be  a  90  degree  angle  c)  𝑚!" = 3,  𝑚!" = ! ,  𝑚!" = 1  
       d)  𝑚!"  ×𝑚!" = −1  ,  therefore  AB  and  BC  are  perpendicular  
 
9)  a)  Not  a  right  triangle      b)  PQ  and  PR  form  a  right  angle
