Geometric Properties of Linear Functions Lesson 1.5
Parallel Lines • Parallel lines are infinite lines in the same plane that do not intersect. • Note "hyperbolic" lines AB, BC, and DE • Which are parallel by the above definition? • What about "if two lines are parallel to a third line, then the two lines are parallel to each other"?
Parallel Lines • The problem is thatthis is not what wecall a Euclidiansystem • We will be looking at properties of lines in a Euclidian system • parallel lines • perpendicular lines
Set the style of one of the equations to Thick Parallel Lines • Given the two equationsy = 2x – 5y = 2x + 7 • Graph both equations • How are they the same? • How are they different?
Parallel Lines • Different: where they cross the y-axis • Same: The slope • Note: they are parallel • View Example Parallel lines have the same slope y=2x+7 y=2x-5 Lines with the same slope are parallel
Perpendicular Lines • Now consider • Graph the lines • How are they different • How are they the same?
Perpendicular Lines • Same: y-intercept is the same • Different: slope is different • Reset zoomfor square • Note lines areperpendicular • Example
Perpendicular Lines • Lines with slopes which are negative reciprocals are perpendicular • Perpendicular lines have slopes which are negative reciprocals
Horizontal Lines • Try graphing y = 3 • What is the slope? • How is the line slanted? • Horizontal lines have slope of zero y = 0x + 3
Vertical Lines • • Have the form x = k • What happens when we try to graph such a line on the calculator? • Think about • We say “no slope” or “undefined slope” k
Intersection of Two Lines • Given the two equations • We seek an ordered pair (x, y) which satisfies both equations • Algebraic solution – set • Solve for x • Substitute that value back in to one of the equations to solve for y
Note curly brackets { } Intersection of Two Lines • Alternative solutions • Use the solve() command on calculatorsolve (y=2x-3.5 and y=-0.5x+4,{x,y}) • Graph and ask for intersection
Intersection of Two Lines • Alternative solutions • Graph and ask for intersectionusing the spreadsheet • Link to IntersectingLines Geogebra file • Enter parameters for each line
Intersection of Two Lines • Try 3x – y = 17 -2x – 3y = -4 • Different rows try different methods • Algebraic • Solve() command • Graph and find intersection
