If two lines are parallel and the slope of one of the lines is "m", what is the product of their slopes? a) 1 b) 2m c) m^2 d) 0

OpenStudy (raden):

if two lines are parallel then the slope is same. so, what is m * m ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

m?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so is it 1?

OpenStudy (haseeb96):

m1 II m2 m1=m2 if the one slope is m then other obviously would be also m

OpenStudy (haseeb96):

no it is not 1 your's all options are wrong

OpenStudy (anonymous):

wait but it said product. so wouldn't it be 2m? or...1?

OpenStudy (haseeb96):

product is 1 it means that m\m=1 i think it has cleared your complexion

OpenStudy (haseeb96):

A is the correct answer

OpenStudy (raden):

m times m equals m^2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Okay I'm confused now.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

dude if two lines are parallel they have the same slope

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so both their slopes would be m

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Lol yeah i know but the answer choices threw me off

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so the product of the slopes os m*m

OpenStudy (anonymous):

is m*m which is m^2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

it is m^2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ohh okay I see. Thank you!
