Determine if Two Lines are Parallel or Perpendicular:
- Find the slope of each line
- If the slopes are the same, the two lines are parallel
- If the slopes have a product of -1, the lines are perpendicular
Write the Equation of a Line in Standard Form:
- Use the given information to obtain the slope
- Parallel lines have the same slope
- Perpendicular lines have slopes whose product is -1
- Use the given point and the slope from the previous step and plug into point-slope form
- Place the equation in standard form
- ax + by = c, a ≥ 0
- a, b, and c are integers
- The GCF of a, b, and c is 1
