Graph parallelogram ABCD on a coordinate plane with vertices A(3,4) B(6,1) C(0,-2) and D(-3,1).
Find the slope of each side.
What do you notice about the slopes?

Respuesta :

SLOPES

AB = (1 - 4) / (6 - 3) = -3 / 3 = -1
BC = (-2 - 1) / (0 - 6) = -3 / -6 = 1/2
CD = (1 - (-2)) / (-3 - 0) = 3 / -3 = -1
DA = (4 - 1) / (3 - (-3)) = 3 / 6 = 1/2

EXPLANATION

Every line has one side parallel to it and I know this because the slope is equal.
