• Intersecting, Parallel or Perpendicular Lines

  Will the lines be intersecting, parallel, or perpendicular? The given lines are y=0.15x + 0.79 and 0.11x-y=-0.85. Transposing the terms, the equation to the second line can be written as y=0.11x+0.85.

• graphing, using substitution, or elimination

  Perpendicular lines are a special case of intersecting lines. Distinct parallel lines do not intersect anywhere. Parallel lines have the same slope. The slopes of perpendicular lines are negative reciprocals of one another.
