If someone could help me with these parts they will get 304 Internet Points.
@jim_thompson5910 @iambatman @freckles @StudyGurl14 @Zarkon
find the slope of the lines if they are same then parallel if m1= -(1/m2) then they are perpendicular
What are 304 internet points?
First step, find the slope of the line of both sets of coordinates.
Do you know how to find slope?
..using two points on a line?
I first need to find if the parallel lines are reciprocal, opposite, the same or negative
Oh, for that...parallel lines have equal slopes
they can never intersect (definition of parallel), and so the slopes have to be exactly the same
So 'The same'. Ok thanks
m1= -(1/m2) perpendicular lines. that is negative reciprocal
hmmm /:
The slopes of perpendicular lines are reciprocals, opposites, the same, or negative reciprocals ?
first thing to do is identify the slopes of the two lines for you to compare \[m = \frac{ y_2-y_1 }{ x_2-x_1 }\]
m1= -(1/m2) perpendicular lines. that is negative reciprocal
Oh, perpinduclar would be negative
ok
Now for part 3:Find the slopes of lines AB and CD. Show your work. Would this just be y2 - y1 / x2 - x1?
yups.
Wait i dont understand, it shows 4 different coordinates for AB and CD.
use point A and B for line AB and point C and D for line CD
I don't understand.
A (3,4) B(7, 7) slope for AB = 7-4/7-3 = 3/4 C(0,0) D (-6,8) slope for CD = 8-0/-6-0 = -8/6 =- 4/3
Awesome, any idea for part 4?
Using what you discovered in Parts I and II, determine if the lines are parallel, perpendicular, or neither. Explain your answer.
Using the information known about perpendicular and parallel lines, how would you classify these two lines?
negative?
remember, parallel lines have equal slopes. Does 3/4 = -4/3 ? nope and perpendicular lines have opposite reciprocal slopes
Are 3/4 and -4/3 opposite reciprocals of each other? \[\frac{3}{4}\times -\frac{4}{3} = -\frac{3\times 4}{4 \times 3} = -1\] YEP!
So yes it is negative?
@StudyGurl14 ?
no...the lines are perpendicular
..since their slopes are opposite reciprocals of each other
As m1= -(1/m2) lines are perpendicular
So which one is it?
the lines are perpendicular
Parallel or perpendicular ?
I've said it like three times....lol
ok, and why are they perpendicular ?
omg...i already said
look at previous posts^
haha sorry, I'll give you an extra 200 internet points (:
what are internet points?
since their slopes are opposite reciprocals of each other ?
correct^
And then how would i graph this stuff?
Oh nevermind i got it.
okay...lol you sure?
Yea I just plug in points A, B, C and D right?
sorta. you plug in and solve for the y-intercept...but anyway: https://www.desmos.com/calculator/0yap1nljbs
Perfect, i just got a few more questions! Is it ok if i tag you in them @StudyGurl14 ?
yeah
