Question

Construct parallel lines. Place two points on the first line. Create a right triangle where the two

points are the hypotenuse. Translate the triangle vertically until the two points are on the new
line. What can we conclude about the rise/run of parallel lines? Show your work and explain
how you know.

Check out the image attached

Explanation:

Seeing the image, it can be concluded that the rise and run of parallel lines are equal. They are parallel only because of the varying y-intercepts.
