5.6: Parallel and Perpendicular Lines Para
Parallel Lines:
1) Lines that never
2) Lines that have the same
Writing the Equation of Parallel Lines Through a Given Point
Steps:
1) Find the slope of the given line (Use only the slope from the given equation, label as “m”)
2) Use that slope and the given point in point-slope form (Label the point as (x
, y
)

3) Write the final equation in the specific form
Example: Write the slope-intercept form of an equation for the line passing through (4, -2) and is
parallel to the graph of y = ½ x -7.
Example: Write the slope-intercept form of an equation parallel to the line that passes through the
points (1, 5) and (-4, 15).
