DETERMINE WHICH OF THE LINES ARE PARALLEL OR PERPENDICULAR Thx Sm class=

Sagot :

Answer:

Parallel: a and b

Perpendicular: none

Step-by-step explanation:

You are given the coordinates of each line.

To check if they are parallel or perpendicular, need to find slope.

In this case we can use :

m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)

So for line a:

(1,5) and (-2, -4)

slope = (-4 - 5) / (-2 - 1)

slope = -9/-3

slope = 3

Line b:

(3, 2) and (1, -4)

slope = (-4 - 2)/(1 - 3)

slope = -6/-2

slope = 3

Line C:

(6, 1) and (-4, 2)

slope = ( 2 - 1) / ( -4 -6)

Slope = 1/ -10

slope = - 1/10

Line A and B are parallel because their slopes are the same.

To check if they are perpendicular, we need to know if their slopes are reciprocals.

Here none of them are perpendicular to each other
