• Parallel lines

• Opposite reciprocals
Definition
• Parallel Lines - are lines in the same plane that
never intersect.
Line WX is parallel to line YZ.
WX || YZ.
Parallel Lines
These two lines are parallel.
Parallel lines are lines in the
same plane that have no
points in common. In other
words, they do not intersect.
As seen on the graph, parallel lines have the same slope.
For y = 3x + 100, m = 3 and for y = 3x + 50, m = 3.

Definition
• Perpendicular Lines – lines that intersect to form 90o
angles, or right angles.
Line RS is perpendicular to line TU.
RS __| TU.
Perpendicular Lines
Perpendicular lines have slopes that are opposite reciprocals.
Definition
• Opposite Reciprocals – two numbers whose
product is – 1.
– Example:
• To find the opposite reciprocal (also called negative
reciprocal) of – 3/4, first find the reciprocal, –4/3.
• Then write its opposite, 4/3.
• Since -3/4 ∙ 4/3 = -1, therefore 4/3 is the opposite
reciprocal of -3/4.
Opposite Reciprocals
Helpful Hint
If you know the slope of a line, the slope of a
perpendicular line will be the "opposite
reciprocal.”
