Parallel & Perpendicular Lines
PARALLEL LINES
[color=#000000]The following applet demonstrates a property that parallel lines have when they're drawn in the coordinate plane. [br] [i] [br]Be sure to move the [color=#1e84cc][b]blue points[/b][/color] around quite a bit![/i] [/color]
QUESTION 1
If you move the blue points to make the lines vertical, are the lines consider parallel?
[color=#000000]What can you conclude about parallel lines drawn in the coordinate plane? [/color]
PERPENDICULAR LINES
[color=#000000]This applet demonstrates a property that perpendicular lines have when they're drawn in the coordinate plane. [br][br][i]Be sure to move the points around quite a bit and observe carefully as you do! [/i][/color]
[color=#000000]What can you conclude about perpendicular lines that are drawn in the coordinate plane? [br](Assume the lines are not aligned horizontally and vertically). [/color]

Linear Function Transformation Exercise
[br][b][size=150]The linear function [color=#ff0000]y = x[/color], denoted by function g. [br][/size] [br][/b]The slope-intercept form is [color=#ff0000][b]y = mx + b[/b][/color], where m=slope and b=y-intercept of the function.[br][br] [size=150][color=#ff0000][b]Note[/b][/color][/size]: The 'slider' feature on the x-y coordinate plane can be used to change the [color=#ff0000][b]m and b[/b][/color] values [br] for the following exercises. To do so, place the cursor and hold it on the dot of the slider and [br] slide it to the desired m and b values.[br] To move the slider to a different location on the x-y plane, place the cursor and hold it on the line [br] of the slider and move it to the desired location.[br][br][color=#ff00ff][b] Note: You can zoom in or out with the mouse.[/b][br][/color]

Linear Regression
Linear Regression
-Download Geogebra File: Linear Regression[br][br]-Move some of your points around so that your value of r goes from -1 to 1[br][br]-Move some of your points around so that the equation of Regression has a gradient of 2 and a y-intercept of 3[br][br]-What happens to your value of r?
Proportional Reasoning
Move the point E up or down to change the size of the man on the right.
Proportional Reasoning
Does the ratio of the size of the man to the size of the line look the same as the man and line on the left?
