Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

What is the condition for two lines to be parallel?
Correct Answer: m1 = m2
  • Step 1: Understand what a line is. A line can be represented by an equation in the form y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.
  • Step 2: Identify the slopes of the two lines you are comparing. The slope is the number in front of x (m) in the line's equation.
  • Step 3: Compare the slopes of the two lines. If the slopes (m1 and m2) are the same, then the lines are parallel.
  • Step 4: Write the condition: Two lines are parallel if m1 = m2.
