Answer:
Explanation:
A. The lines through (0, 4) and (2.0) and the line through (-2, 3) and (-4, 2) are neither parallel nor perpendicular.
B. To determine if these lines are parallel, perpendicular, or neither, I used the slope of the lines.
C. The slope of a line is calculated by finding the change in y (the vertical distance between two points on the line) divided by the change in x (the horizontal distance between the same two points). If the slope of two lines is the same, the lines are parallel. If the slope of two lines is the inverse of each other (one is the negative of the other), the lines are perpendicular. If the slope of the two lines is neither the same nor the inverse of each other, the lines are neither parallel nor perpendicular.
Using this information, I calculated the slope of the first line to be 2.0 and the slope of the second line to be -0.5. Since the slopes are not the same or the inverse of each other, I concluded that the lines are neither parallel nor perpendicular.
