Example:
In each part find the slope of the line through
If a line goes up from left to right, then the slope has to be positive
If a line goes down from left to right, then the slope has to be negative

INTERCEPTS
An intercept of a line is a point where a line crosses an axis.
The y-intercept is the point at which the line crosses the y-axis.
The x-intercept is the point at which the line crosses the x-axis.

Slope-Intercept Form
Point – Slope Form
Given a point and the slope of a line we can
write the equation of the line in
point – slope form
Given a line passes through point (-3,5) and has a slope of -¾.Write
an equation of the line.
Write the equation of the line that goes through the points (6, –4) and
(2, 8) .
Slope-Intercept Form
Slope – Intercept Form:
y = mx + b
m = the slope of the line … b = the y-intercept

Parallel Lines
Two lines with the same slope are said to be parallel lines. If you
graph them they will never intersect.
We can decide algebraically if two lines are parallel by finding the
slope of each line and seeing if the slopes are equal to each other.
Testing if Lines are Parallel
Are the lines parallel?12 3 9 and -8 2 14x y x y
Practice Constructing Parallel Lines
Find the equation of the line going through the point (4,1) and
parallel to 3 7y x
Find the equation of the line going through the point (-2,7) and
parallel to 2 8x y
Perpendicular Lines
Perpendicular lines are lines that intersect in a right angle.
We can decide algebraically if two lines are perpendicular by finding the
slope of each line and seeing if the slopes are negative reciprocals of
each other. This is equivalent to multiplying the two slopes together and
seeing if their product is –1.

Equation of a Circle
The center of a circle is given by (h, k)
The radius of a circle is given by r
The equation of a circle in standard form is
