Review of Equations: Formula for Slope Standard Form Slope-intercept Form Point-Slope Form
Write an equation for the line that passes through (-2, 5) and (1, 7): Find the slope: Use point-slope form:
Horizontal Lines • Slope is zero. • Equation form is y = #. • Write an equation of a line and graph it with zero slope and y-intercept of -2. • y = -2 • Write an equation of a line and graph it that passes through (2, 4) and (-3, 4). • y = 4
Vertical Lines • Slope is undefined. • Equation form is x = #. • Write an equation of a line and graph it with undefined slope and passes through (1, 0). • x = 1 • Write an equation of a line that passes through (3, 5) and (3, -2). • x = 3
Parallel Lines **Parallel lines have the same slopes.** Find the slope of the original line. Use that slope to graph your new line and to write the equation of your new line.
Write the equation of a line parallel to 2x – 4y = 8 and containing (-1, 4):
Write the equation of a line parallel to 2x – 4y = 8 and containing (-1, 4), continued:
Perpendicular Lines • **Perpendicular lines have the • opposite reciprocal slopes.** • Find the slope of the original line. • Change the sign and invert the numerator and denominator of the slope. • Use that slope to graph your new line and to write the equation of your new line.
Write the equation of a line perpendicular to y = -2x + 3 and containing (3, 7): Original Slope= -2
Write the equation of a line perpendicular to 3x – 4y = 8 and containing (-1, 4): -4y = -3x + 8
