Question

Help with Geometry? @hartnn

Answer 1

Can someone help explain how to do this? I'm a bit confused.

Answer 2

If two lines are parallel, their slope should be equal.

Answer 3

How would I figure that out?

Answer 4

\[
\text{Slope}=\frac{\Delta y}{\Delta x}=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}
\]

Answer 5

For example, the slope of AB is \(\dfrac{0-0}{x_2-0}=0\)

Answer 6

so, you now just need to prove that slope of DE =0
did you try ? need anymore help ?

Answer 7

I do need more help. I don't understand the whole concept of the slope or anything at all.

Answer 8

in simple words, slope is rise/run



when you have the co-ordinates of two points on the line, we calculate slope by using the formula
points (x1,y1) and (x2,y2)
\(\huge m=\frac{y_1-y_2}{x_1-x_2}\)
