ALGEBRA
In Class: Parallel lines have the same Slope.
Perpendicular lines have slopes that are negative reciprocals or the or the opposite sign and the reciprocal.
If Slope equals M equals 2/3 perpendicular line has slope m equals --3/2
If slope equals m equals --3 equals -3/1 m equals 1/3
Students were taught how to write and equation for a line given two points. Although students will need tow points to get the slope only one of the points is need for y -- intercept.
Y equals mx plus b
M equals slope b equals y --intercept
