Parallel and Perpendicular
• Read the following instructions in order to complete this discussion, and review the example of how to complete the math required for this assignment:
o Given an equation of a line, find equations for lines parallel or perpendicular to it going through specified points. Find the appropriate equations and points from the table below. Simplify your equations into slope-intercept form.
o Use your assigned number to complete.
(A) Write the equation of a line parallel to the given line and passing through the given point.
y = -2x - 4; (1, 3)
(B) Write the equation of a line perpendicular to the given line and passing through the given point.
y = -2x - 4; (1, 3)
o Discuss the steps necessary to carry out each activity. Describe briefly what each line looks like in relation to the original given line.
o Answer these two questions briefly in your own words:
-What does it mean for one line to be parallel to another?
-What does it mean for one line to be perpendicular to another?
• Incorporate the following five math vocabulary words into your discussion. Use bold font to emphasize the words in your writing (Do not write definitions for the words; use them appropriately in sentences describing your math work.):
