This activity serves as an introduction to the equations of parallel and perpendicular lines. The teacher will submit a linear equation and students will submit equations to lines that are either parallel or perpendicular to the given line. Students will analyze the equations submitted and write their own conclusions about the slopes of parallel lines and perpendicular lines.
