1. 2.2 Parallel and Perpendicular Lines and Circles Slopes and Parallel Lines 1. If two nonvertical lines are parallel, then they have the same slopes. 2. If two distinct nonvertical lines have the same slope, then they are parallel. 3. Two distinct vertical lines, with undefined slopes, are parallel.

2. Example 1: Writing Equation of a Line Parallel to a Given Line

3. Solution Y 1 =-7 X 1 =-2

8. Slopes and Perpendicular Lines 1. If two nonvertical lines are perpendicular, then the product of their slopes is –1. 2. If the product of the slopes of two lines is –1, then lines are perpendicular. 3. A horizontal line having zero slope is perpendicular to a vertical line having undefined slope.
