Line BC has an equation of a line y = 2x + 3, and line EF has an equation of a line y = −3x + 4. These two equations represent parallel lines because the slopes of the lines are the same perpendicular lines because the product of the slopes is −1 the same line lines that are neither parallel nor perpendicular

@waterineyes im guessing its D

OpenStudy (gabylovesyou):

cuz parallel lines have same slope... these dont perpendicular lines have slopes that are reciprocals...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Never guess dear... :) Otherwise teachers will guess your marks while checking.. :P

OpenStudy (gabylovesyou):

lol so i was right... ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Okay, you know parallel lines have same slope??

OpenStudy (gabylovesyou):

yes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

You know any condition for perpendicular lines?

OpenStudy (camerondoherty):

Lets start by graphing C: What does it look like to you? http://prntscr.com/4xebkw

OpenStudy (gabylovesyou):

Perpendicular lines have slopes that are opposites and reciprocals, and the product of the slopes is always –1.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

-1 ??

OpenStudy (gabylovesyou):

@camerondoherty they arent parallel or perpendicular..

OpenStudy (gabylovesyou):

@waterineyes thats what my lesson says cx

OpenStudy (camerondoherty):

And they aren't the same line either... So...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Just kidding, yes -1.. They are neither THIS nor THAT.... :P

OpenStudy (gabylovesyou):

@camerondoherty i was right :D its D yaya

OpenStudy (gabylovesyou):

Thank you!

OpenStudy (camerondoherty):

Glad to Help C:
