Step-by-step explanation:
Hey there!
The points of line AB are; (-1,-4) and (2,11).
Note:
- Use double point formula and simplify it to get two eqaution.
- Use condition of parallel lines, perpendicular lines to know whether the lines are parallel or perpendicular or nothing.
~ Use double point formula.
~ Keep all values.
~ Simplify it.
Therefore this is the equation of line AB.
Now, Finding the equation of line CD.
Given;
The points of line CD are; (1,1) and (4,10).
~ Using formula.
~ Keep all values.
~ Simplify it.
Therefore, 3x - y- 2 = 0 is the eqaution of line CD.
Use condition of parallel lines.
m1= m2
Slope of equation (i)
Therefore, m1 = 5
Slope of second equation.
Therefore, m2 = 3.
Now, m1≠m2.
So, the lies are not parallel.
Check for perpendicular.
m1*m2= -1
3*5≠-1.
Therefore, they aren't perpendicular too.
So, they are neither.
