Students can use TI 73 calculators to explore equations that create parallel and perpendicular lines. Teacher will use the screen capture feature of the Navigator system to display students graphs and equations to discuss observations to...

Use your knowledge about the slopes of parallel and perpendicular lines to solve some problems. For example, what's the equation of the lineperpendicular to y=3x-3 and passes through the point (-8, -2).

This comprehensive study guide highlights the main terms and formulas needed to review lines in the coordinate plane. Examples are included.

Detailed math tutorial features notes and examples that discuss graphing lines and introduces the concept of slope, the standard form of the line, the point-slope form, slope-intercept form, and parallel and perpendicular lines.

Given a line, learn how to find the equations for lines that are perpendicular and parallel to it. This tutorial offers several example graphs and problems as well as practice problems for you to work through when you're ready.

Characteristics of a line are explained to students through four different lessons. Topics include intercepts, slope, and special line cases. The lessons have an overview, materials, procedures, and evaluation techniques.

This tutorial will show you how to find a the slope of graph, write a linear equation in slope-intercept form. You'll also learn how to determine whether two lines are parallel or perpendicular to each other. For advanced math students.

This study guide on lines in a coordinate plane covers key terms, what different line slopes look like, postulates about parallel and perpendicular lines, the slope-intercept equation, how to graph parallel and perpendicular lines, and...

The lesson teaches students about an important characteristic of lines: their slopes. Slope can be determined either in graphical or algebraic form. Slope can also be described as positive, negative, zero or undefined. Students get an...

This activity will help students understand the relationship between the slopes of parallel and perpendicular lines.

Practice using your graphing calculator for drawing parallel lines, perpendicular lines, slope, and transversals. If you get stumped or if you would like to check your work, then select the View Solution button, which is located directly...

Washington State University provides a lesson on finding the slope of an equation and putting the equation into the desired form. The site also contains informatinon concerning parallel and perpendicular lines.

Students learn to develop the equation of a line from its graph. They also learn to write the equation of a line from the slope and the y-intercept, a point and the slope, and two points. They also investigate slopes of lines that are...

The goal of this task is to examine when two lines in the plane are perpendicular in terms of their slopes. Aligns with HSG-GPE.B.5.

[Free Registration/Login Required] This flipchart investigates the idea that linear equations that have the same slope will create parallel lines. We did some samples in class and then students are to predict what happens when equations...

The purpose of this task is to lead students through an algebraic approach to a well-known result from classical geometry, namely, that a point X is on the circle of diameter AB whenever angle AXB is a right angle. This consists of...

In this activity, students create a slope triangle and understand the concepts of slope and the equation of lines. They realize that slope is constant at all points along a fixed line. They also explore the slopes of parallel and...

Students will investigate the relationship of the algebraic slopes of pairs of lines to the graphical relationship between the lines.

This site from the Northeast Parallel Architectures Center, Syracuse University has a very substantial discussion of math topics slope & line equations. The outline form is quite useful if you need to zero in on one aspect of...

This activity is for use as a formative assessment tool after the introduction and overview of parallel and perpendicular slopes.
