7 2.3 Finding the Equation of a Line

8 Find the equation of the line that passes through A (-2,4) and B(2,-1)

9 2.3 Parallel and Perpendicular Lines Two nonintersecting lines in a plane are parallel. Their slopes are equivalent to one another. Two lines are perpendicular if and only if they intersect at a 90 ⁰ angle. Their slopes are the opposite and reciprocal of one another

10 2.3 Parallel and Perpendicular Lines Find the equation of the line whose graph is parallel to the graph of 2x – 3y = 7 and passes through the point P(-6, -2)

11 2.3 Parallel and Perpendicular Lines

12 2.3 Applications of Linear Functions The bar graph on page 193 is based on data from the Nevada Department of Motor Vehicles. The graph illustrates the distance d (in feet) a car travels between the time a driver recognizes an emergency and the time the brakes are applied for different speeds. a. Find a linear function that models the reaction distance in terms of speed of the car by using the ordered pairs (25, 27) (55, 60). b. Find the reaction distance for a car traveling at 50 miles per hour.

13 2.3 Applications of Linear Functions A rock attached to a string is whirled horizontally about the origin in a circular counter-clockwise path with radius 5 feet. When the string breaks, the rock travels on a linear path perpendicular to the radius OP and hits a wall located at y = x + 12 Where x and y are measured in feet. If the string breaks when the rock is at P(4,3), determine the point at which the rock hits that wall.

14 2.4 Quadratic Functions

15 A graph is symmetric with respect to a line L if for each point P on the graph there is a point H on the graph such that the line L is the perpendicular bisector of the line segment PH.
