Question 584911: Hi id like some help with this question here:
A triangle has vertices A(11,1) B(3,6) and C(3,-4)
Find an equation of the line that is parallel to AB and contains point C.
I think it was (-2,-2)(3,-4)
Answer by solver91311(24713) (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Parallel lines have identical slopes. Use the slope formula:
where )
and )
are the coordinates of the given points A and B.
Then use the point-slope form of an equation of a line:
)
where are the coordinates of point C and 
is the slope calculated above.
