Parallel and Perpendicular Notes

This document discusses parallel and perpendicular lines in linear equations and functions. Parallel lines have the same slope and different y-intercepts, while perpendicular lines have slopes that are negative reciprocals of each other. Lines that are parallel never intersect, and lines that are perpendicular intersect at a 90 degree angle. The sign for parallel lines is ||, while the sign for perpendicular lines is ⊥. Examples are provided to demonstrate lines that are parallel, perpendicular, and neither.
