I need quick help! I need an explanation!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

How do you know if two lines are paralell, perpendicular or neither based on slope? Ifthe slope is 2/3 on one, what is the other?

and slope perpendicular slopes are *NEGATIVE RECIPROCAL* If slope of first equation is 4/5 then slope of perpendicular line is negative 5/4

Nnesha (nnesha):

parallel lines have same slope if slope of first equation is 2 then slope of 2nd equation is also 2

Nnesha (nnesha):

and slope perpendicular slopes are *NEGATIVE RECIPROCAL* If slope of first equation is 4/5 then slope of perpendicular line is negative 5/4

THANKYOU SO MUCH!:D

OpenStudy (anonymous):

What if it is parallel? @Nnesha

OpenStudy (anonymous):

HELPPLEASE?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@AaronAndyson ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

or neither?

OpenStudy (aaronandyson):

Perpendicular : slope is NEGATIVE RECIPROCAL Parallel : slope is same

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what about neither @AaronAndyson ?

OpenStudy (aaronandyson):

No idea :(

Nnesha (nnesha):

if slopes are not same and not perpendicular then neither example if slope of first equation is 2 and slope of 2nd equation is 3 os neither

Nnesha (nnesha):

\(\color{blue}{\text{Originally Posted by}}\) @domisreallytall What if it is parallel? @Nnesha \(\color{blue}{\text{End of Quote}}\) parallel lines have the same slope so if slope of first equation is 3 then slope of 2nd equation is also 3
