Answer:
The best statement which explains the relationship between lines AB and CD is "They are parallel because their slopes are equal" ⇒ A
Step-by-step explanation:
- Parallel lines have equal slopes and different y-intercepts
- The rule of the slope of a line passes through points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) is m =
In the given figure
∵ The blue line passes through points A and B
∵ A = (-4, -2) and B = (4, 4)
∴ x1 = -4 and y1 = -2
∴ x2 = 4 and y2 = 4
→ Substitute them in the rule of the slope
∵ m(AB) = =
=
=
∴ The slope of line AB is
∵ The green line passes through points C and D
∵ C = (0, -3) and D = (4, 0)
∴ x1 = 0 and y1 = -3
∴ x2 = 4 and y2 = 0
→ Substitute them in the rule of the slope
∵ m(CD) = =
=
∴ The slope of line CD is
∵ The slope of line AB = the slope of line CD
∵ Parallel lines have the same slope
∴ AB // CD
∴ AB and CD are parallel lines
The best statement which explains the relationship between lines AB and CD is "They are parallel because their slopes are equal"
Answer:
The lines are perpendicular
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
If two lines are parallel, then their slopes are the same
If two lines are perpendicular, then their slopes are opposite reciprocal (the product of their slopes is equal to -1)
Remember that
The formula to calculate the slope between two points is equal to
<em>Find the slope of the first line</em>
we have the points
(-3,-1) and (1,-9)
substitute in the formula
<em>Find the slope of the second line</em>
we have the points
(1,4) and (5,6)
substitute in the formula
Simplify
<em>Compare the slopes</em>
Find out the product
therefore
The lines are perpendicular
