:
Not sure what you mean by a "shortcut method", however:
:
Parallel line have the same slope:
in the form y = mx + y (m=slope)
An example; m=+.4
y = .4x + 4
and
y = .4x - 2
These lines are parallel because the slope is .4 in both cases, as you can see
:
:
Perpendicular lines the relationship: m1 * m2 = -1
An example:
the 1st equation slope; m1 = -
y = x + 5
;
Calculate the slope of the 2nd equation using the above relationship
- * m2 = -1
m2 =
m2 = +2
2nd equation: y = 2x+5
:
Looks like this
