2. All vertical lines have equations of the form x = k where k is a constant. All horizontal lines have equations of the form y = k where k is a constant. Vertical and Horizontal Lines

3. 1)Find the equation of the horizontal line that goes through the point (-2, 5) 2)Find the equation of the vertical line that goes through the point (1, -6) Practice y = 5x = 1

4. Graphing Lines x- and y-intercepts 1) solve the equation for y. 4) draw the line Slope-intercept form 2) plot the y-intercept 3) use the slope to find another point y = mx + c

5. Graph using the slope and y-intercept: Practice 1) Plot y-intercept = (0, 2) 2) Use slope to plot second point. 1/3 = up 1, to right 3. Thus, (3, 3) 3) Draw line

6. 1) find the x-intercept by letting y = 0 2) find the y-intercept by letting x = 0 3) plot the intercepts. x- and y-intercepts 1) solve the equation for y. 4) draw the line Slope-intercept form 2) plot the y-intercept 3) use the slope to find another point 4) draw the line y = mx + c Graphing Lines

7. Graph by finding the x- and y-intercepts. 2x – 3y – 12 = 0 Practice 1)Find x-intercept when y = 0. 2x = 12 or x = 6 2)Plot (6, 0) 3)Find y-intercept when x = 0. 3y = -12 or y = -4 4)Plot (0, -4) 5)Draw line

8. Intersection of Lines Or not … If two lines are parallel then they have the same gradient and do not intersect.

9. Intersection of Lines If two lines L 1 and L 2 are not parallel then they intersect at just one point. To find intersection point write: m 1 x 1 + c 1 = m 2 x 2 + c 2 and solve for x.

10. x + y = 6 2x – y = 6 Graph the lines, find where they meet: Practice (4, 2)

11. 1) y = x + 4 5x – 3y = 0 Use your calculator to find where the lines meet: Practice 2) y = 2x + 1 - x – y = 4 (6, 10)(-5/3, -7/3)

12. 1) Find the equation of the perpendicular bisector of AB for A(-1, 2) and B(3, 4) 2) Find the equation of the perpendicular bisector of DF for D(4, 0) and F(2, 3) Practice y = -2x + 5 y = 2/3x – 1/2
