2. OBJECTIVES : At the end of the lesson, the student is expected to be able to: • Define and determine the angle of inclinations and slopes of a single line, parallel lines, perpendicular lines and intersecting lines.
4. INCLINATION AND SLOPE OF A LINE The inclination of the line, L, (not parallel to the x-axis) is defined as the smallest positive angle measured from the positive direction of the x-axis or the counterclockwise direction to L. The slope of the line is defined as the tangent of the angle of inclination.
7. PARALLEL AND PERPENDICULAR LINES If two lines are parallel their slope are equal. If two lines are perpendicular the slope of one of the line is the negative reciprocal of the slope of the other line. If m 1 is the slope of L 1 and m 2 is the slope of L 2 then, or m 1 m 2 = -1.
9. Sign Conventions: Slope is positive (+) , if the line is leaning to the right . Slope is negative (-) , if the line is leaning to the left . Slope is zero (0) , if the line is horizontal . Slope is undefined ( ) , if the line is vertical .

11. 3. Show that the triangle whose vertices are A(8, -4), B(5, -1) and C(-2,-8) is a right triangle. 4. Show that the points A(-2, 6), B(5, 3), C(-1, -11) and D(-8, -8) are the vertices of a parallelogram. Is the parallelogram a rectangle? 5. Find y if the slope of the line segment joining (3, -2) to (4, y) is -3. 6. Show that the points A(-1, -1), B(-1, -5) and C(12, 4) lie on a straight line.
13. ANGLE BETWEEN TWO INTERSECTING LINES Where: m 1 = slope of the initial side m 2 = slope of the terminal side The angle between two intersecting lines L 1 and L 2 is the least or acute counterclockwise angle. L 1 L 2
